Sam Hui / Blue Balloon (The Hourglass Song)

 

뉴욕 예술학교에서 첼로를 전공하는 '제레미'라는 소년은 발레 오디션을 준비하는

'수잔'에게 첫눈에 사랑에 빠진다.
'수잔'은 첨엔 '제레미'가 별로 마음에 없었는데 그의 첼로 연주를 듣고 마음이 움직이고..
이런 아름다운 첫사랑의 경험을 그린 영화라고 합니다.
누구나 첫사랑의 경험은 있을 것인데..

 

이 영화는 못봤지만 70년대 중반 홍콩 거주시 홍콩가수 Sam Hui가 부르는 이곡이

너무나 좋아 그의 LP를 사서 닿도록 들었던 곡이다.
Joseph Brooks가 작곡한 이곡은 영화 주인공 Robby Benson이 직접 불러 많은 사랑을 받았는데

Theme from Jeremy, Blue Balloon, 또는 The Hourglass Song라는 제목으로도 알려져 있다.

 

 

 

 

이 영화 주인공인 Robby Benson이 부르는 버젼

 

Composed by Lee Holdridge

I have a blue balloon, a happy tune
Love enough to last me all through the afternoon
I have a New York Times, fourteen dimes
And explanations for the most profound nursery rhymes.

Before the rivers run dry,
Before the last sad goodbye
Let us be kind to one another
We can try.

So don't just throw your love about
It's not too late to find out
Before the sand has all run out
of the hour-glass.

The carnival is here, the clowns appear
Plastic painted people hold each other near
Hopes are always high, they echo off the sky
When it's over It's just the lonely sound of goodbye.

Before the rivers run dry,
Before the last sad goodbye
Let us be kind to one another
We can try.

So don't just throw your love about
It's not too late to find out
Before the sand has all run out
of the hour-glass.

Too late to hide it now, it's all around us now
Oh how I want you girl To lie beside me now.
While there still is time and all my poems still rhyme
Let me love you now, we can drink the good, good wine.

Before the rivers run dry,
Before the last sad goodbye
Let us be kind to one another
We can try.

So don't just throw your love about
You and me, had last find out,
Before the sand has all run out
of the hour-glass.
