岸芷汀兰人约黄昏:Owl 1 City-Vanilla 2 Twilight 3



生于美国明尼苏达州的adam young(owl city是他的“单人乐队”艺名)2009年凭借一首《salt water room》红遍全球,这个声音清新略显羞涩的大男孩现在已经正式签约唱片公司,并开始了自己全新的音乐道路。这首《vanilla twilight》空降billboard冠军,也是对adam音乐实力的印证。



Artist:Owl City

Song:Vanilla Twilight




The stars lean down to kiss you

And I lie awake and miss you

Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere

'Cause I'll doze 4 off safe and soundly

But I'll miss your arms around me

I'd send a postcard to you dear

'Cause I wish you were here



I'll watch the night turn light blue

But it's not the same without you

Because it takes two to whisper quietly

The silence isn't so bad

Till I look at my hands and feel sad

'Cause the spaces between my fingers

Are right where yours fit perfectly 5



I'll find repose 6 in new ways

Though I haven't slept in two days

'Cause cold nostalgia 7 chills me to the bone

But drenched 8 in vanilla twilight

I'll sit on the front porch all night

Waist-deep in thought because when I think of you

I don't feel so alone



I don't feel so alone

I don't feel so alone



As many times as I blink

I'll think of you tonight

I'll think of you tonight



When violet eyes get brighter

And heavy wings grow lighter 9

I'll taste the sky and feel alive again

And I'll forget the world that I knew

But I swear I won't forget you

Oh, if my voice could reach back through the past

I'll whisper in your ear

Oh,darling.I wish you were here
