Back Home Again

 

"저 멀리 계곡 위로 폭풍우로
구름이 밀려와
오늘은 어깨가 무겁게 느껴 지는 오후입니다.

그 아래로 엔진소리 바퀴소리 굉음과 함께

하이웨이를 내달리는 트럭이 보입니다.

 

기도하며 기다리던 당신을 머잖아 보게 되겠군요 

당신과 함께 시간을 보내는 것
그런 아름다운 일상속에서
부드럽게 타오르는 벽난로 옆에서 저녁식사를 마주보며 함께 하는것

그것이 나의 고향입니다.

마음속에 고향을 서정적으로 노래한 "Back_Home_Again"은

미국 싱어 송 라이터 존 덴버가 작곡하고 연주한 컨츄리 Song입니다.

1974 년 같은 이름의 앨범에서 싱글로 발매 된 "Back Home Again"은

그해 11 월 빌보드 핫 100 차트에서, 5 위를 기록했다.

향수(鄕愁)...詩作메모

 

 

 

There's a storm across the valley
Clouds are rolling in
The afternoon lies heavy
On your shoulders
There's a truck out on the four lane
A mile or more away
And the whining of his wheels
Just makes it colder

He's an hour away from riding
On his prayers up in the sky
And ten days on the road
Are barely gone
Like a fire softly burning
Supper's on the stove
It's the light in your eyes
That keeps him warm

Hey it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm
Feels like a long lost friend
Yes, and hey it's good to be back home again

 

 

 

There's all the news to tell him
How you've spent your time
And what's the latest thing the neighbors say
And your mother called last Friday
Sunshine made her cry
And you felt the baby move just yesterday

Hey it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm
Feels like a long lost friend
Yes, and hey it's good to be back home again

 

And all the time that I can lay this tired old body down
To feel your fingers feather soft upon me
The kisses that I live for
The love that lights my way
The happiness that living with you brings me

It's the sweetest thing I know of
Just spending time with you
It's the little things that make a house a home
Like a fire softly burning, supper's on the stove
And it's the light in your eyes that makes me warm

Hey it's good to be back home again
Sometimes this old farm
Feels like a long lost friend
Yes, and hey it's good to be back home again
I said hey it's good to be back home again...
