John Denver - 在那遥远的地方

         

在那遥远的地方
有位好姑娘
人们走过她的帐房
都要回头留恋地张望

我愿做一只小羊
跟在她身旁
我愿她拿着细细的皮鞭
不断轻轻打在我身上

在那遥远的地方
有位好姑娘
我愿她拿着细细的皮鞭
不断轻轻打在我身上

         

John Denver - Annie's Song

         

You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

Come let me love you
Let me give my life to you
Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms
Let me lay down beside you
Let me always be with you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

Let me give my life to you
Come let me love you
Come love me again

You fill up my senses
Like a night in the forest
Like the mountains in springtime
Like a walk in the rain
Like a storm in the desert
Like a sleepy blue ocean
You fill up my senses
Come fill me again

         

John Denver - This Old Guitar

         

This old guitar taught me to sing a love song
It showed me how to laugh and how to cry
It introduced me to some friends of mine
And brightened up some days
It helped me make it through some lonely nights
Oh, what a friend to have on a cold and lonely night

This old guitar gave me my lovely lady
It opened up her eyes and ears to me
It brought us close together
I guess it broke her heart
It opened up the space for us to be
What a lovely place and a lovely space to be

This old guitar gave me my life my living
All the things you know I love to do
To serenade the stars that shine
From a sunny mountainside
Most of all to sing my songs for you
I love to sing my songs for you
Yes, I do, you know
I love to sing my songs for you 

         

John Denver - Fly Away

         

All of her days have gone soft and cloudy
All of her dreams have gone dry
All of her nights have gone sad and shady
She's getting ready to fly

Fly away, fly away, fly away.

Life in the city can make you crazy
For sounds of the sand and the sea
Life in a high-rise can make you hungry
For things that you can't even see

Fly away, fly away, fly away.

In this whole world there's nobody as lonely as she
There's nowhere to go and there's nowhere
That she'd rather be.

She's looking for lovers and children playing
She's looking for signs of the spring
She listens for laughter and sounds of dancing
She listens for any old things

Fly away, fly away, fly away. 

        

John Denver - I'm Sorry

         

It's cold here in the city
It always seems that way
And I've been thinking about you almost everyday
Thinking about the good times
Thinking about the rain
Thinking about how bad it feels alone again

I'm sorry for the way things are in China
I'm sorry things ain't what they used to be
But more than anything else
I'm sorry for myself
'Cause you're not here with me

Our friends all ask about you
I say you're doing fine
And I expect to hear from you almost anytime
But they all know I'm crying
And I can't sleep at night
They all know I'm dying down deep inside

I'm sorry for all the lies I told you
I'm sorry for the things I didn't say
But more than anything else
I'm sorry for myself
I can't believe you went away

I'm sorry if I took some things for granted
I'm sorry for the chains I put on you
But more than anything else
I'm sorry for myself
For living without you

         

John Denver - Leaving on a Jet Plane

         

All my bags are packed
Im ready to go
Im standin here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breakin
Its early morn
The taxis waitin
Hes blowin his horn
Already Im so lonesome
I could die

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
Cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Theres so many times Ive let you down
So many times Ive played around
I tell you now, they dont mean a thing
Evry place I go, Ill think of you
Evry song I sing, Ill sing for you
When I come back, 
Ill bring your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
Cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time
Let me kiss you
Then close your eyes
Ill be on my way
Dream about the days to come
When I wont have to leave alone
About the times, I wont have to say

Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that youll wait for me
Hold me like youll never let me go
Cause Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

But, Im leavin on a jet plane
Dont know when Ill be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

         

John Denver - Today

         

Today, 
while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, 
Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, 
Today

Ill be a dandy, and Ill be a rover
Youll know who I am 
by the songs that I sing
Ill feast at your table, 
Ill sleep in your clover
Who cares what the morrow shall bring

Today, 
while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, 
Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows 
shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, 
Today

I cant be contented 
with yesterdays glory
I cant live on 
promises winter to spring
Today is my moment, 
now is my story
Ill laugh and Ill cry and Ill sing

Today, 
while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, 
Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, 
Today

Today, 
while the blossoms still cling to the vine
Ill taste your strawberries, 
Ill drink your sweet wine
A million tomorrows shall all pass away
Ere I forget all the joy that is mine, 
Today

         

John Denver - For You

         

Just to look in your eyes again 
Just to lay in your arms 
Just to be the first one always there for you 
Just to live in your laughter 
Just to sing in your heart 
Just to be everyone of your dreams come true 
Just to sit by your windows 
Just to touch in the night 
Just to offer a prayer each day for you 
Just to long for your kisses 
Just to dream of your sighs 
Just to know that I'd give my life for you. 

For you all the rest of my life 
For you all the best of my life 
For you alone, only for you. 

Just to wake up each morning 
Just to you by my side 
Just to know that you're never really far away 
Just a reason for living 
Just to say I adore 
Just to know that you're here in my heart to stay. 

For you all the rest of my life 
For you all the best of my life 
For you alone, only for you. 

Just the words of a love song 
Just the beat of my heart 
Just the pledge of my life, my love for you. 

         

John Denver & Lene Siel - Perhaps Love

         

Perhaps love is like a resting place
A shelter from the storm
It exists to give you comfort
It is there to keep you warm
And in those times of trouble
When you are most alone
The memory of love will bring you home

Perhaps love is like a window
Perhaps an open door
It invites you to come close
It wants to show you more
And even if you lose yourself
And dont know what to do
The memory of love will see you through

Oh, love to some is like a cloud
To some as strong as steel
For some a way of living
For some a way to feel
And some say love is holding on
And some say letting go
And some say love is everything
And some say they dont know

Perhaps love is like the ocean
Full of conflict, full of change
Like a fire when its cold outside
Or thunder when it rains
If I should live forever
And all my dreams come true
My memories of love will be of you
