Time

어렸을 때, 내가 좋아하던 팝송 중에
“Time”이란 제목을 가진 노래가 세 곡이 있었다.

세 곡 다 다른 분위기에 가사내용도 다 다르지만
공교롭게도 “시간”이라는 같은 제목을 갖고 있다는 이유로
하나로 묶어서 소개한다.

먼저 퀸의 Time.

가사도 보자.

Time waits for nobody
Time waits for nobody
We all must plan our hopes together
Or we’ll have no more future at all
Time waits for nobody

We might as well be deaf and dumb and blind
I know that sounds unkind
But it seems to me we’ve not listened to
Or spoken about it at all
The fact that time is running out for us all

Time waits for nobody
Time waits for no-one
We’ve got to build this world together
Or we’ll have no more future at all
Because time – it waits for nobody

You don’t need me to tell you what’s gone wrong (gone wrong gone wrong)
You know what’s going on
But it seems to me we’ve not cared enough
Or confided in each other at all (confided in each other at all)
It seems that we’ve all got our backs against the wall

(Time) Time waits for nobody
(Time) waits for no-one
We’ve got to trust in one another
Or there’ll be no more future at all
(Time)

Yeah – Time waits for nobody
No no – Time don’t wait for no-one
Let’s learn to be friends with one another
Or there’ll be no more future at all

Time (time) time (time) waits for nobody waits for nobody
Time time time time waits for nobody at all

Time waits for nobody – yeah
Time don’t wait – waits for no-one
Let us free this world for ever
And build a brand new future for us all

Time waits for nobody nobody nobody
For no-one

그 다음은, 알란 파슨즈 프로젝트의 Time.

Time, flowing like a river
Time, beckoning me
Who knows when we shall meet again
If ever
But time
Keeps flowing like a river to the sea

Goodbye my love, Maybe forever
Goodbye my love, The tide waits for me
Who knows when we shall meet again
If ever
But time
keeps flowing like a river (on and on) to the sea, to the sea

Till it’s gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forevermore
Goodbye my friends, Maybe forever
Goodbye my friends, The stars wait for me
Who knows where we shall meet again
If ever
But time
Keeps flowing like a river (on and on) to the sea, to the sea

Till it’s gone forever
Gone forever
Gone forevermore
Never mind
Never mind

마지막으로, 글렌 캠벨의 Time.
얘는 동영상이 없으니 그냥 음악파일로만.

Some people run, some people crawl
Some people don’t even move at all

Some roads lead forward,
some roads lead back
Some roads are bathed in light
and some wrapped in black

Some people never get
and some never give
Some people never die
and some never live

Some folks treat me mean,
some treat me kind
Most folks just go their way
and don’t pay me any mind

Time, oh, good, good time
Where did you go?
Time, oh, good, good time
Where did you go?

Sometimes I’m satisfied,
sometimes I’m not
Sometimes my face is cold
and sometimes it’s hot

At sunset I laugh,
at sunrise I cry
At midnight I’m between
and I’m wondering why

Time, oh, good, good time
Where did you go?
Time, oh, good, good time
Where did you go

귀찮고 능력없어서 가사 해석은 일일이 안했는데
Time 이란 주제로 노래를 부르다보니 하나같이 뭔가 철학적이다.
청승맞다고 하는 게 더 정확할라나.

어렸을 때부터 청승맞은 노래 좋아했던
시대가 썼습니다.
