Текст песни 1963 (Jonathan Richman) с переводом

Well, you moved out from the city

How come out there?

For a calm, for a calm

That I recall from somewhere

So I could smell the plain old wind

Without fabric softener blent in

So I could see a landscape without a fence

So I could hear that loud silence

All right now you’re away from the city

Why did you go?

I think I know, I think I know

To get the feelin' that cities used to give me

Way back in 1963

But Park Square has changed

It isn’t like then

1963 won’t be here

Again

So, so that I could approach excitement from a different tack

Cause 1963 probably isn’t

Coming back

So I can let the birds do what rock music did before

Cause 1963 probably won’t be here

Anymore

Well, you visit cities

What do you learn?

That I yearn for the past

That I yearn

Well, now you’re back home from the city

What did it lack?

Well 1963

It just wouldn’t come back
