Rod Mckuen - Solitude's My Home (with lyrics/한글)

Rodney Marvin McKuen (1933 ~ 2015)

Solitude's my home

Above the pounding
of the rain
beyond the rolling
of the sea
a thousand people
know my name
and one or two
may yet know me
There in the middle
of the night
I’ll find
a friendly face
and I’ll be taken back
again
to some new
loving place
And no
not being left alone
although
Solitude’s My Home
Faces there are
I haven’t seen
faces there are
I’ll never see
but what a waste it
would have been
had I been anyone
but me
Still
if I seem a
little proud
my head
will often bend
on seeing someone in
a crowd
I’ll never hope to
comprehend
Oh no
I’m not alone
Although
Solitude’s My Home
I try to beg the hand
of help
sometimes when silence
gets to rough
all I can offer
is myself
that never seems
to be enough
And yet there are
some men who kill
for less
than someone’s hand
at some things
I can only guess
and never hope
to understand
No
I’m not alone
although
Solitude’s My Home
I turn my face toward
the wind
and shuffle down
the darkened street
with winter
coming on again
there’s no telling
who I’ll meet
Perhaps an arm
will open up
to hold
me for a while
who knows what waits within
the night
beneath the surface
of a smile
Oh no
I’m not alone
though I know
Solitude’s My Home
No
I’m not alone
although
Solitude’s My Home
