歌词
I was on the beach but I was thinking about the bay
躺在沙滩上的时候我会想蓝蓝的海湾
Got to the bay but by then I was far away
我想去看看那弯弯的蓝和绿啊可是你知道吗只能隔得远远的
I was on the ground but looking straight into the sun
我站在大地上眼睛就盯着太阳啊
But the sun went down and I couldn't find another one
那太阳落下了啊我就找不到它了
For awhile
哪怕是这一小会儿呢
For because it was an all-burning feeling in my chest
可这炽烤着我的啊，在我胸中的
To fill the void
想填满这空空的黑暗
Of a long night unwatched by, well, the sun
阳光照不见的夜啊
Until the morn
直到天明
Until when, well, the sun's reborn
直到，它再次降临
And so am I
哦也许我也会是新的
From all the scorn buried deep
有些和这人间互相看不对眼的
Within the psyche of my soul
都记着呢，都化作血肉了吧
I was standing down but I was also on the run
想想其实都不是事儿，可是还活着呢
In my mind
还有所期
有时候和朋友远远地说说话
I was on the radio talking with a friend of mine
想说啥说啥，你不也是这样吗
There was no format because well, we like it like that
想想也不知道说了啥，
He was out of his mind and I was way out of mine
慢慢就淡了
Then everything went backwards
脑子里几句话飘着飘着
With words coming out
都散了
Bassackwards
多谢了
And I appreciate him to the utmost degree
我又在玩沙子的时候想蓝蓝的海湾了
等我远远的， 就看到了那蓝和绿
I was on the beach but I was thinking about the bay
我站在大地上抬头盯着太阳
Got to the bay but by then I was far away
直盯到太阳落山了，心想完了找不到它了
I was on the ground but looking straight into the sun
哪怕这一小会儿呢
But the sun went down and I couldn't find another one
可怎么填满这空空如也
For a while
等天亮了
To fill the void
都散了吧
Until the morn
我说，让我再听听那些声音，
Then everything went backwards
快没了
I mean, phrases flying out
我在月亮上，哦或者是躺在草地上
Bassackwards
深深吸口空气，心还远远飘着呢
哦我还在地球上呢
I was on the moon but more so, I was in the grass
让我缓个神
So I was chilling out but with a very drifting mind
哦天哪
So I was on the ground circa planet Earth
睁眼之前我得记下来
But out of sorts
真的很不错
But I snapped back, baby
我睁开眼
Just in time to jot it down and come around
你好
It's always nice to see you
（你知道吗）我该在不经意的游走中停下来
And I came around
噢其他的一切都不重要了
It's always nice to see you here when I come around
我说，只有你
Or when I'm plain come, comin' down
都散了吧
Then everything goes backwards
你的光芒啊
I mean, everything moving out
让一切都黯然失色
Then everything goes backwards
I mean, everything oozing out
是的我只能站在那儿
Bassackwards
你知道吗我不舍得碰你的手
(Strummin' a Chet Atkins)
我这样的人
还是算了吧
I was standing up
多谢了
But you know I hate to still stoop you down
又要散去了吗
To my level
是吗那些话说出口了吗
还是在心里隐隐散了
Bassackwards
事情就是这样
And I appreciate her to the utmost degree
今天的事情就是这样
人间的事情就是这样
Then everything went backwards
还能怎样呢，你说呢
I mean, words coming out
Bassackwards
Just the way things is these days
Just the way they come out these days
Just the way things come out
To the utmost degree
