I stand at your gate
and the song that I sing is of moonlight.
I stand and I wait
for the touch of your hand in the June night.
The roses are sighing a moonlight serenade.
The stars are aglow
and tonight how their light sets me dreaming.
My love, do you know
that your eyes are like stars brightly beaming?
I bring you and sing you a moonlight serenade.
Let us stray till break of day
In love's valley of dreams.
Just you and I, a summer sky,
A heavenly breeze kissing the trees.
So don't let me wait,
come to me tenderly in the June night.
I stand at your gate
and I sing you a song in the moonlight,
A love song, my darling, a moonlight serenade.
中高年の手習いフルート 53曲目 Yesterday Once More
フルート・ソロ/The Very Best of CARPENTERS より
なんと曲の後半は移調されて♭が6つも付いています。
なんでこんなめんどくさい事しまんねん。
頭の中がこんがらがって、指が動きません。
え~と、なんやファだけ♭付かないのかいな。
伴奏はピアノ譜にドラムを加えたPC演奏。
カーペンターズ、1973年の曲です。
そう青春真っ盛りの頃の歌、この歌そのものがYesterday Once Moreとなっています。
最近コーラスを始めました。
コーラスはビブラート禁なので、フルートのビブラートも小さくなってしまいました。
歌詞
When I was young
I'd listen to the radio
Waitin' for my favorite songs
When they played I'd sing along
It made me smile
Those were such happy times
And not so long ago
How I wondered where they'd gone
But they're back again
Just like a long lost friend
All the songs I loved so well
Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing's
So fine
When they get to the part
Where he's breakin' her heart
It can really make me cry
Just like before
It's yesterday once more
Lookin' back on how it was
In years gone by
And the good time that I had
Makes today seem rather sad
So much has changed
It was songs of love that
I would sing to then
And I'd memorize each word
Those old melodies
Still sound so good to me
As they melt the years away
Every Sha-la-la-la
Every Wo-o-wo-o
Still shines
Every shing-a-ling-a-ling
That they're startin' to sing's
So fine
All my best memories
Come back clearly to me
Some can even make me cry
スタンド・バイ・ミー 歌詞
When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we see
No I won't be afraid
No I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand
stand by me,so
Darling darling
Stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh Stand, stand by me
Stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me, and
Darling darling
Stand by me, oh stand by me
oh stand, stand by me
Stand by me.
Darling darling
Stand by me, oh stand by me
oh stand,stand by me
Stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble
Won't you stand by me, oh stand by me
Oh won't stand now, oh stand
Stand by me..
