Music/Text: John Denver
It's five o'clock this morning and the sun is on the rise
There's frosting on the window pane and sorrow in your eyes
The stars are fading quietly, night is nearly gone
And so you turn away from me and tears begin to come
And it's goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leaving you
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
It's goodbye again and I wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when I have to go?
It seems a shame to leave you now, the days are soft and warm
I long to lay me down again and hold you in my arms
I long to kiss the tears away, give you back the smile
Other voices beckon me, and for a little while
It's goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leaving you
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
It's goodbye again and I wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when I have to go?
I have to go and see some friends of mine, some that I don't know
Some who aren't familiar with my name
It's something that's inside of me not hard to understand
It's anyone who listens to me sing
If your hours are empty now, who am I to blame
You think if I were always here, our love would be the same
As it is the time we have, is worth the time alone
Lying by your side, the greatest peace I've ever known
But it's goodbye again, I'm sorry to be leaving you
Goodbye again, as if you didn't know
It's goodbye again and I wish you could tell me
Why do we always fight when I have to go?
Goodbye Again - Daniel Montenegro
Goodbye Again - John Denver
John Denver 1972년 앨범, "Rocky Mountain High"에 실린 곡이다.
그의 뮤직 커리어 초창기, Denver는 Chad Mitchell Trio의 멤버이었는데
리더 Chad Mitchell이 그룹을 떠나자 상황은 어려워 진다. 거기에 개인적
경제문제 까지 겹치자 이는 Denver의 가정 생활에 갈등으로 작용한다.
Goodbye Again, 당시 Denver의 형편을 대변하는 노래일듯 싶다.
