A long December and there's reason to believe |
|
Maybe this year will be better than the last |
|
I can't remember the last thing that you said as you were leavin' |
|
Now the days go by so fast |
|
And it's one more day up in the canyons |
|
And it's one more night in Hollywood |
|
If you think that I could be forgiven...I wish you would |
|
The smell of hospitals in winter |
|
And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters, but no pearls |
|
All at once you look across a crowded room |
|
To see the way that light attaches to a girl |
|
And it's one more day up in the canyons |
|
And it's one more night in Hollywood |
|
If you think you might come to California...I think you should |
|
Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a.m. |
|
And talked a little while about the year |
|
I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower, |
|
Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her |
|
And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe |
|
Maybe this year will be better than the last |
|
I can't remember all the times I tried to tell my myself |
|
To hold on to these moments as they pass |
|
And it's one more day up in the canyon |
|
And it's one more night in Hollywood |
|
It's been so long since I've seen the ocean...I guess I should |
