Essex Green
첫앨범 Everything is Green 중에서
08 Everything is Green
11 Carballo
뉴욕 브룩크린에서 결성된 Essex Green
전원적인, 목가적인 이란 표현이 잘 어울리는 편한 사운드에 통통튀는 캠핑송 같은 곡들과 낮고 몽환적인 곡에 이르기까지 수시로 내 몸에 빙의되곤하는 인디밴드.
이곡은 그들의 첫 앨범 Everything Is Green의 마지막 곡이다.
첫앨범이라고 믿기지 않을 정도로 굉장히 순도 높은 앨범이다.
Everything is green
Mondays I’m alone with you
It took me by surprise
I never saw that boy in you
Locked behind your eyes
We’re not ready for the cut
So I’ll meet you in the rough
By the side of the creek.
Will you birdie, will you bogie?
It doesn’t matter much
Just keep your head down, & swing right through
Soon you’ll be in the cup
In the woods what will we find?
This day was made for you and I
Everything is green
Everything is green
High above the hill, I could see for miles
There wasn’t any doubt I could see the light
There wasn’t any doubt as your read your lines.
In the woods what will we find?
This day was made for you and I.
Everything is green.
Everything is green.
Everything is green.
Everything is green.
Everything is green.

Carballo
i lie.
halfway to sleep, sleep so restlessly.
for want of a place where lovers we'd be
darling, Carballo
we'll walk the red earth
a windy Mars olive-tree covered plain
the ground started to bleed with the falling rain
and you're holding my hand.
darling, take my weight in gold
it forms any figure you want it to know
no need of a polish, won't rust or erode
and forever to hold
yours to hold.
