“Don’t let the rain get you down
It’s a waste of time (a waste of time)
Have your fun, live everyday
In the bright sunshine (a bright sunshine)
Be young, be foolish, but be happy…”

“It makes no difference how far I go
Like a scar, the hurt will always show
And it makes no difference who I meet
They’re just a face in the crowd on a dead-end street
And the sun don’t shine anymore
And the rains fall down on my door…”

“Hello, how are you?
Have you been alright through all those lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely
Lonely nights? That’s what I’d say
I’d tell you everything if you’d pick up that telephone
Yeah, yeah, yeah…”

“I’m sitting and waiting by the telephone
Waiting for the bell to ring
Short change fumble, ‘Dial a heart’ trouble
And I ain’t got time for searching through the rubble, oh no
Well, oh, no
Communication let me down
And I’m left here…”

“I’m totally confused by you…”

“Caught between the longing for love
And the struggle for the legal tender
Where the sirens sing and the church bells ring
And the junk man pounds his fender
Where the veterans dream of the fight
Fast asleep at the traffic light
And the children solemnly wait
For the ice cream vendor…”

2/2 네 (ne) – The most common and natural way to say “yes” in most situations
예 (ye) – Sounds more formal and is often used in set phrases or very formal situations
“Do you ever think before you speak
Or was that an insult intentionally
You talk to me without an invitation
Make it an awkward conversation
Too bad your big mouth never came with
Words to say what you really meant
Piss off and thanks again my friend
For your backhanded compliment…”

Koreans often say “yes” simply to show they’re listening. Both 네 (ne) and 예 (ye) mean “yes” in Korean, but they are used in different situations. 1/2

“Take nothing less than the supreme best
Do not obey rumors people say ‘cause you can past the test
Just move on up to a greater day
With just a little faith
If you put your mind to it, you can surely do it…”
