Beautiful Life - 제임스 모리슨(James Morrison)

 

 

 

James Morrison

 

 

 

제임스 모리슨(James Morrison)는1984년 영국에서 출생,  그의 특색있는 거친듯하면서도 감미로운 목소리 그리고 허스키한 목소리는 사실 그가 어렸을때 걸린 독감때문이며 제이슨 뮤라즈와 함께한 듀엣곡 디테일즈 인 더 패브릭(Details in the Fabric)에서도 확인 하실수 있다. 흡사 로드 스튜어트의 소프트한 버전을 듣고 있다는 착각이 들기도 한다.  그는 어린 시절에 스티비 원더, 오티스 레딩, 밴 모리슨과 같은 여러 가수에게서 영향을 받았으며 모리슨의 곡 중  'Song for You, Truths for Me' 'You Make It Real' ' Broken Strings' 등 있으나 최고의 인기 싱글로 'You Give Me Something' 꼽히고 있다.

 

 Beautiful Life

 

 

 

 

 

I was born with tears in my eyes
Like everybody else I know
Kicking and screaming
All I could see was a light in a world so cold

No-one to hold you
Feels so lonely
Left out on your own
But we were born with tears in our eyes
And that’s how we learned the strength to fight

It’s a beautiful life
Well, you won’t always see it that way
When you’re deep in a hole
With nowhere to go
And you can’t see it change

(It’s a beautiful life)
Coz it’s just out of sight
It’s a beautiful life

You’re scared, got the fear every day
Sounds like everybody else I know
Takes a hole in the ground
Or the sky falling down
Before we can let it show

If you’re just like me
You’re trying to believe
That it’s all going to work out fine
We can live with the doubt
We’re trying to do without
Maybe we don’t have to fight

It’s a beautiful life
Well, you won’t always see it that way
When you’re deep in a hole with nowhere to go
And you can’t see it change

(It’s a beautiful life)
Coz it’s just out of sight
It’s a beautiful life

I tried so hard to keep hanging on
Well maybe you should just let it go
Let the hope in your heart break the fall

Sing with me
It’s a beautiful life
Well, you won’t always see it that way
When you’re deep in a hole with nowhere to go
And you can’t see it change

(It’s a beautiful life)
Coz it’s just out of sight
It’s a beautiful life
