James Taylor - Our Town
词:James Taylor
曲:James Taylor
Long ago, but not so very long ago
The world was different, oh yes it was
You settled down and you built a town
and made it live
And you watched it grow
It was your town
Time goes by
time brings changes, you change, too
Nothing comes that you can't handle
so on you go
Never see it coming
the world caves in on you
On your town
Nothing you can do.
Main street isn't main street anymore
Lights don't shine
as brightly as they shone before
Tell the truth
lights don't shine at all
In our town
Sun comes up each morning
Just like it's always done
Get up, go to work, start the day,
Open up for business that's never gonna come
As the world rolls
by a million miles away
Main street isn't main street anymore
No one seems to need us
like they did before
It's hard to
find a reason left to stay
But it's our town
Love it anyway
Come what may, it's our town.
