Talk of the Town
I want to be where the talk of the town
Is about last night when the sun went down
Yeah
And the trees are dancing and the warm wind blows
And the same old time
And the water below 2 gives a gift to the sky
And the clouds give back every time they cry
Make the grass grow green beneath 4 my toes
And if the sun pops 5 out
I'll paint a picture all about
The colours I've been dreaming 7 of
The hours just don't seem 8 enough
To put it all together
Maybe it's as 1 strange 9 as it seems 10 mmm mmm
And the trouble 11 I find is that the trouble finds me
It's a part 12 of my mind 13 it begins with a dream 6
And the feeling 14 I get when I look in a sea
That this world is a puzzle
Find all the pieces
And put it all together
Then I rearrange it
I follow it forever 15
Always as strange as it seems mmm mm
Nobody 16 ever 3 told me not to try
Not to try
Always try
Always try
And the water below gives a gift to the sky
And the clouds give back every time they cry
Make the grass grow green beneath my toes
And if the sun comes out
I'll paint a picture all about
The colours I've been dreaming of
The hours just don't seem enough
Put it all together
Always be as strange as it seems
I said 17
Hooo hoo hohohoohhohooooo
中文歌词
我想去他口中的小镇
是在昨晚，那会儿太阳已落山
树儿婆娑，暖风习习
一切如昔
水是大地给天空的礼物
云儿呜呜拿眼泪回报大地
让草儿在我趾间变绿吧
等太阳公公一探出脑袋
我就要画幅画
绘上所有梦想的颜色
就算时间不够 画不完整
画面或许还很怪异
麻烦事儿总和我不期而遇
大海让我沉思
世界令我惊奇
拾掇零零碎碎
拼凑
重整
我将永远这样
世界就是这么怪异
没有人告诉我不要去尝试
不要去尝试
哦 去尝试吧
哦 去尝试吧
水是大地给天空的礼物
云儿呜呜拿眼泪回报大地
让草儿在我趾间变绿吧
等太阳公公一探出脑袋
我就要画幅画
绘上所有梦想的颜色
就算时间不够 画不完整
画面或许还很怪异
歌曲背景
很会冲浪，很会歌唱，也很会想像，这就是来自美国夏威夷的民谣歌手Jack 18 Johnson（杰克·约翰逊）。说杰克是个多面手一点也不夸张，17岁之前他是一名优秀的职业冲浪运动员，17岁之后他转行开始涉足电影、音乐和艺术——跑去当导演排了一部“嘻哈”歌手的纪录片，后来又和民谣歌手合作走入唱片界。不过，最终让这位冲浪天才得以锋芒万丈的，是他一把清凉的木吉他和一副甘甜醇美的嗓音。
