Текст песни: Almost Everything + перевод

I know just where to begin

Singing my songs into the wind

Letting them just blow away

And never hearing them again

Friends of mine were in a band

Halifax was on the stands

I thought I had a chance

To be like them

So I recorded and I sang

About the things that I knew of back then

Some kids who heard and saw me in them

At a time in their lives

When music was everything

It was everything

Loading up my red Tercell

With my guitar and things to sell

Getting to the Embassy hotel

Just in time to play

The year was 1994

They were cross-legged on the floor

Listening to my bedroom wall

Oh those were the days

When I recorded and I sang

About the things that I knew of back then

Some kids who heard and saw me in them

At a time in our lives

When music was everything

It was everything

Then everything changed over the phone

California to my home

My hero’s voice after the tone

Yeah my mind was blown

Soon every note became a song

And I was rarely alone

Most of what I longed for was gone

So I shut things out

But I’m recording once again

While my kid is upstairs in bed

And I’ll admit now and then

That some nights when I’m strumming

Or maybe just drumming

The music is still everything

Well almost everything
