  Country road Shizuku's versionPost Reply with Quote Edit/Delete Post Search for Posts by NausicaaLover Report Post to a Moderator        IP Address Go to the top of this page

First off, the little gig in Mr Nishi's antique shop is one of my favorite scenes from all Ghibli's movies. It's so heartwarming it never fails to put a smile on my face everytime I watch the movie. And what I like the best is Shizuku sings her own version of the song. I think it is quite meaningful and carries the message of the movie: growing up and finding your true self. So I note down the lyrics so you guys can share your thoughts about it. I have the Disney English dubbed version of the film with Brittany Snow's voice as Shizuku, please correct me if I made any mistake:



I dreamed of living
Alone but fearless
Secret longing
To be courageous
Loneliness kept
Bottled up inside
Just reveal your brave face
They’ll never know you lied
Country road
May lead me home
Know I belong there
All on my own
Destiny calls
Motionless I stall
Know I can’t go
Country road

No matter how dark’s the world inside me
I’ll never stop to show a tear that I’ve shed
But now I’ll have to walk so fast
Running sprinting to forget
What is lodged in my heart
Country road
May lead me home

Country road
La la la la
You’re a good friend
I’ll never know
Same tomorrow
Regret and sorrow
Can’t take you home

P.S: I really like this part : "loneliness kept bottled up inside, just reveal your brave face. They'll never know you lied". Somehow it reminds me of Metallica's words: "Emptiness is filling me, to the point of agony"

That was always my favorite part of the Disney dub... I usually watch it in the original japanese, though...
