Simon & Garfunkel - Leaves That Are Green

Live In Paris

May 19700

 

 

I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song.
I'm twenty-two now but I won't be for long
Time hurries on.
And the leaves that are green turn to brown,
And they wither with the wind,
And they crumble in your hand.

Once my heart was filled with the love of a girl.
I held her close, but she faded in the night
Like a poem I meant to write.
And the leaves that are green turn to brown,
And they wither with the wind,
And they crumble in your hand.

I threw a pebble in a brook
And watched the ripples run away
And they never made a sound.
And the leaves that are green turned to brown,
And they wither with the wind,
And they crumble in your hand.

Hello, Hello, Hello, Hello,
Good-bye, Good-bye, Good-bye, Good-bye,
That's all there is.
And the leaves that are green turned to brown.

 

Simon & Garfunkel의 Sounds Of Silence (1966)에 실려있는 곡입니다. 그 스튜디오 버전보다는 어쿠스틱 기타반주에 의한  라이브 버전이 더 아름답습니다. Paul Simon의 솔로 앨범 Songbook (1965)에 실려 있는 Leaves That Are Green도 아주 좋습니다.
