James Taylor <You've Got A Friend>






When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night


You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend


If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door


You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you
Winter, sprin
72">If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door


You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there


Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them


You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend






キャロル・キングヴァージョンも好きですけど

今日はジェームス・テイラーヴァージョンで。

ちょっと甘いやさしい声が

なんか沁みるんですよね。

とことん堕ちて這い上がってこよう。


でもこの曲、ほんとに好きです。

もとより友達には感謝しているのですが

私がピンチの時にいつも支えてくれる友達、

普段連絡を取ってなくても

いつでも同じ様に接してくれる

深いところでつながってると感じる友達。

会いたくてたまらない友達。

つきあいが浅くても言葉足らずでもわかってくれる友達。



あらためて素敵な人たちに囲まれている自分を

好きになる。



友達がいる。

触れることができなくても

言葉を交わすことができなくても

友達がいる。


それだけで元気になれそうな気がします。



ほんとに素敵な曲ですよね。   名前
