Our Last Summer - Abba

The summer air was soft and warm
The feeling right, the paris night
Did its best to please us
And strolling down the elyse
We had a drink in each caf
And you
You talked of politics, philosophy and i
Smiled like mona lisa
We had our chance
It was a fine and true romance

I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain

We made our way along the river
And we sat down in the grass
By the eiffel tower
I was so happy we had met
It was the age of no regret
Oh yes
Those crazy years, that was the time
Of the flower-power
But underneath we had a fear of flying
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
We took the chance
Like we were dancing our last dance

I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, round the notre dame
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand

Paris restaurants
Our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day, worries far away
Our last summer
We could laugh and play

And now youre working in a bank
The family man, the football fan
And your name is harry
How dull it seems
Yet youre the hero of my dreams

I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the seine, laughing in the rain
Our last summer
Memories that remain
I can still recall our last summer
I still see it all
In the tourist jam, round the notre dame
Our last summer
Walking hand in hand
Paris restaurants
Our last summer
Morning croissants
Living for the day, worries far away

상대적으로 꽤나 잔잔한 느낌을 주는 것 같은 노래입니다. 

 

멜로디 부분에서는 그리 잔잔하기만 하지도 않지만 말이죠.

 

그래도 보컬 부분에서 감미롭고 달달하니까요.

 

정말 머리 속에 생각이 나는 '아바'의 노래들은 다 신나는 노래들인데요.

 

이렇게 크게 지르지 않고 잔잔하게 부르는 노래도 있을 줄이야.?!

 

 

 

추억에 대한 그런 이야기를 하고 있는 것 같은데 말이죠.

 

우리의 지난 여름?! 마지막 여름?!

 

아무튼 추억을 되새기는 노래인 것 같은데 말이죠.

 

그래서 잔잔한 멜로디로 유지를 하는 건가요?

 

듣기에 부담 없고 아무 때나 들을 수 있어서 좋은 느낌입니다.

 

 

 

우리나라에서도 '아바'의 팬들이 꽤나 많다고 알고 있는데요.

 

아바의 팬들이라면 누구나 좋아할 것 같은 노래입니다.

 

부드러우면서도 끌리는 무언가가 있으니까 말이죠.

 

그들이 제발 다시 돌아오는 걸 보고 싶은 ㅠ.ㅠ

 

'ABBA' - [Our Last Summer]였습니다.
