Billie Holiday

 

 

엘라 피츠제랄드, 사라 본과 더불어 3대 여성 재즈 보컬이라고 일컫는 빌리 홀리데이

 

 

Louis Armstrong, Barney Bigard 와 Billie Holiday

 

 

할렘가의 불우한성장기, 차별과 모욕, 성폭력, 마약중독, 숱한구속과 석방 ,이혼etc..

44세의 짧은 그녀의 죽음은 차라리 평화와 안식였던듯 하다.

I'm a fool to want you

I'm a fool to want you
I'm a fool to want you
To want a love that can't be true
A love that's there for others too

 

I'm a fool to hold you
Such a fool to hold you
To seek a kiss not mine alone
To share a kiss the Devil has known

 

Time and time again I said I'd leave you
Time and time again I went away
But then would come the time when I would need you
And once again these words I'll have to say

 

Pity me, I need you
I know it's wrong, it must be wrong
But right or wrong I can't get along
Without you"

I can't get along
Without you

 

다른 이들과 똑같이 나누는

진실 없는사랑을 원했던

제가  어리석었어요[바보에요]...

너무 어리석었어요...

 

나만의 것이 아닌 키스를 갈구하다니

악마가 알아챈 키스를 나누려 하다니

당신을 붙들려 한게 어리석었어요

저는 정말 바보에요

 

수없이 그대곁을 떠나겠다고 했고

수없이 그대 곁을 떠났었지만

당신이 필요할 때 찾아오곤 했지요

그리고 다시 이런 말을 해야 했어요

 

저를 가엽게 여겨주세요 그대가 필요해요

잘못이란거 알지만 뻔히 잘못되리란거 알지만

잘되건 잘못되건

난 그대없이 살수 없어요
