New York State of Mind (1976)

  • Lyrics

  • hop on a flight to : ~行きの飛行機に飛び乗る

    Some folks like to get away
    Take a holiday from the neighborhood
    Hop a flight to Miami Beach
    Or to Hollywood
    But I'm taking a Greyhound
    On the Hudson River Line

  • out of touch with : ~と接触しないで、~から離れて

    It was so easy living day by day
    Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
    But now I need a little give and take
    The New York Times, The Daily News

  • let it slide : ~を気にしない

    It comes down to reality
    And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
    Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
    I've left them all behind
    I'm in a New York state of mind

She's Always A Woman (1977)

  • Lyrics

  • casual : 何気ない、思いつきの

    She can ruin your faith with her casual lies

  • ahead of one's time : 時代に先駆けて、進歩的

    She's ahead of her time

  • give out : 気持ちを表現する、思い切って口に出す

  • give in : (折れて)〔人・希望などに〕従う

    Oh, and she never gives out
    And she never gives in
    She just changes her mind

  • nobody's fool : だましにくい人,見かけより利口な人、a sensible and wise person who is not easily deceived.

    She's nobody's fool
    But she can't be convicted


Just the Way You Are (1977)

  • Lyrics

  • go change : 着替えに行く

    Don't go changing, to try and please me

  • let down : 失望させる

    You never let me down before
