Farewell Blues - Glenn Miller

I am awaiting the sunrise Gazing modestly through the coldest morning Once it came you lied Embracing us over autumn's proud treetops I stand motionless In the parade of falling rain Your voice I cannot hear As I am falling again Devotion eludes And in sadness I lumber In my own ashes I am standing without a soul She wept and whispered I know We walked into the night Am I to bid you farewell? Why can't you see that I try When every tear I shed Is for you?

I'm wild about my daddy. I want him all the time. Wild about my daddy, I want him all the time. But I don't want you, daddy, if I can't call you mine. Got the farewell blues-y, and my trunk is packed. Got the farewell blues-y, and my trunk is packed, But I don't want no daddy because that I ain't comin' back. Oh, fare you well, daddy. Hon, it's your turn now. Fare you well, daddy. Hon, it's your turn now. After all I've done, you mistreated me anyhow. Going through the wood-field feeling sad and blue. Going through the wood-field feeling sad and blue. Lord, up jumped a rabbit, said, "Mama, I've got 'em too." Pig starts to singin'. Oh, how his voice could ring! Pig starts to singin'. Oh, how his voice could ring! He says, "I'm no yellow jacket, but Lord, how I can sting!" Since my man left me, the others can't be found. Since my man left me, others can't be found, But before he left me, the other men was hangin' around. So fare you well, daddy. Someday you'll hear bad news. So farewell, daddy. Someday you'll hear bad news. When you look for your mama, she's gone with the farewell blues.

떠날 때 창틀에 화분이 비었길래 뒤 뜰의 꽃을 옮겨 담았어요 제라늄 꽃을 떠날 때 책장에 먼지가 쌓였길래 책 하나 속에 꽂아두었어요 짧은 편지를 정든 찻잔도 색이 바랜 벽지도 흔적이 힘들어서 바꾸지 말아요 내 마음에도 같은 것들을 남긴 것처럼 떠날 때 문턱에 나비가 앉았길래 넘지 못하고 바라보았어요 떠날 때 발등에 개미가 올랐길래 걸음 멈추고 나누었어요 작별 인사를 정든 찻잔도 물기 배인 마루도 의미를 알기 전에 바꾸지 말아요 내 마음에도 같은 것들을 남긴 것처럼
