Wouldn't it be nice if we were older
Then we wouldn't have to wait so long
And wouldn't it be nice to live together
In the kind of world where we belong
You know its gonna make it that much better
When we can say goodnight and stay together
Wouldn't it be nice if we could wake up
In the morning when the day is new
And after having spent the day together
Hold each other close the whole night through
Happy times together we've been spending
I wish that every kiss was neverending
Wouldn't it be nice
Maybe, if we think and wish
And hope and pray it might come true
Baby, then there wouldn't be a single thing
We couldn't do
We could be married
And then we'd be happy
Wouldn't it be nice
You know it seems the more we talk about it
It only makes it worse to live without it
But let's talk about it
Wouldn't it be nice
Good night my baby
Sleep tight my baby.
Wouldn't it be nice if we were older...
1963년 Chuck Berry의 <Sweet Little Sixteen>(1958년)를 멜로디만 남겨놓은 채 노랫말과 제목을 바꿔 서프 뮤직의 대명사로 만든 <Surfin' U.S.A>의 주인공 Beach Boys. 지난 45년간 햇볕이 뜨거워지고 파도가 넘실거릴 때마다 지구촌 방방곡곡에 울려퍼지는 노래다.
또 가장 가깝게는 80년대 후반 톰 크루즈가 주연을 맡은 영화 에 수록돼 깜짝 1위를 한 도 찾을 수 있겠다.
