Alvvays 올웨이즈

Rode here on the bus
Now you're one of us
It was magic hour
Counting motorbikes on the turnpike
One of Eisenhower's

Live your life on a merry-go-round
Who starts a fire just to let it go out?

If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?

On the lead guitar
Said you'd go to work
In the waking hour
In fluorescent light
Antisocialites watch a wilting flower

Live your life on a merry-go-round
Who builds a wall just to let it fall down?

If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?

Don't sit by the phone for me
Wait at home for me, all alone for me
Your face was supposed to be hanging over me like a rosary
So morose for me; seeing ghosts of me; writing oaths to me
Is it so naive to wonder

If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?
If I saw you on the street, would I have you in my dreams tonight, tonight?

시간을 가질 수록 애정이 생긴다고_ 맞아요 그런거 같네요.

(처음엔 별로인 거 같다가 듣다보니까 계속 듣게 되는..?하하)

목소리가 뭔가 좀 애달퍼_

멜로디가 그런건가.

Always_ Alvvays

캐나다 인디밴드. 2011년 결성.

이 노래에 대한 기사를 보면, 

보컬인 랜킨은  사랑이 조금 더 지속되길 바랬지만, 

너무나 빨리 끝나버린 것에 대한 것을 노래하고 있다고_

짧은 연애에 대해 많은 사람들이 경험할 텐데, 그게 진짜 사랑이었나? 사랑이 아니었나 하는 의심이 될 수도 있고.

그 해답은 찾을 수 없지만 그 자체가 우리한테 의미가 없는 것은 아니라며.

"Dreams Tonite"도 단순히 그 감정과 의구심, 궁금증에 대해서 분석을 시도한 노래, 

근데 왜이렇게 목소리가 익숙하지. 

특히 live your life on a merry-go-around 이부분은 어느 다른 노래에서 들었던 것 같은..착각일까?
