好听的英文歌曲：Vanilla Twilight - Owl City

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《vanilla¹ twilight²》空降billboard冠军，也是对adam音乐实力的印证。

The stars lean down to kiss you
And I lie awake and miss you
Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere
'Cause I'll doze³ 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 perfectly⁴

I'll find repose⁵ in new ways
Though I haven't slept in two days
'Cause cold nostalgia⁶ chills me to the bone
But drenched⁷ 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 lighter⁸
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
