| [00:14.61] |
On certain Sundays in November |
| [00:17.93] |
When the weather bothers me |
| [00:20.75] |
I empty drawers of other summers |
| [00:23.94] |
Where my shadows used to be |
| [00:26.98] |
She is standing by the water |
| [00:30.60] |
As her smile begins to curl |
| [00:33.47] |
In this or any other summer |
| [00:36.73] |
She is something altogether different |
| [00:40.69] |
Never just an ordinary girl |
| [00:51.01] |
And in the evenings on Long Island |
| [00:54.50] |
When the colors start to fade |
| [00:57.00] |
She wears a silly yellow hat |
| [01:00.18] |
That someone gave her when she stayed |
| [01:03.30] |
I didn't think that she returned it |
| [01:06.42] |
We left New York in a whirl |
| [01:09.75] |
Time expands and then contracts |
| [01:12.81] |
When you are spinning |
| [01:15.28] |
In the grips of someone |
| [01:17.42] |
Who is not an ordinary girl |
| [01:20.73] |
When you sleep |
| [01:22.35] |
You find your mother in the night |
| [01:25.53] |
But she stays just out of sight |
| [01:28.90] |
So there isn't any sweetness in the dreaming |
| [01:36.64] |
And when you wake |
| [01:38.28] |
the morning covers you with light |
| [01:41.85] |
And it makes you feel alright |
| [01:44.86] |
But it's just the same hard candy |
| [01:47.89] |
You're remembering again |
| [01:51.26] |
|
| [01:57.34] |
You send your lover off to China |
| [02:00.68] |
Then you wait for her to call |
| [02:03.55] |
You put your girl up on a pedestal |
| [02:06.93] |
Then you wait for her to fall |
| [02:09.63] |
I put my summers back in a letter |
| [02:13.25] |
And I hide it from the world |
| [02:16.07] |
All the regrets you can't forget |
| [02:19.22] |
Are somehow pressed upon a picture |
| [02:23.16] |
In the face of such an ordinary girl |
| [02:27.15] |
When you sleep |
| [02:28.60] |
You find your mother in the night |
| [02:32.23] |
But she fades just out of sight |
| [02:35.34] |
So there isn't any sweetness in the dreaming |
| [02:40.97] |
|
| [02:42.72] |
And when you wake |
| [02:44.72] |
the morning showers you with light |
| [02:48.09] |
And it makes you feel alright |
| [02:51.23] |
But it's just the same hard candy |
| [02:54.27] |
You're remembering again |
| [02:58.11] |
|
| [02:58.73] |
Again, again, again, again |
| [03:00.41] |
|
| [03:03.03] |
It's just the same hard candy |
| [03:05.34] |
You're remembering again |
| [03:08.23] |
Again, again again, again |
| [03:13.42] |
And it's just the same hard candy |
| [03:16.42] |
You're remembering again |
| [03:19.98] |
|
| [03:35.31] |
Go ask her to come around |
| [03:38.74] |
And see me late after dark |
| [03:41.42] |
Don't ask me to come around |
| [03:44.29] |
Then wait to if there's a spark |
| [03:47.85] |
Go ask her to come around |
| [03:50.92] |
And see me late after dark |
| [03:53.92] |
Don't ask me to come around |
| [03:57.11] |
Then make me wait to see the spark |
| [04:00.30] |
Go ask her to come around |
| [04:03.89] |
Late and see me after dark |
| [04:06.57] |
Don't ask me to come around |
| [04:09.75] |
Then wait to see if there is a spark |
| [04:12.64] |
Go ask her to come around |
| [04:14.96] |
And see me late after dark |
| [04:15.52] |
Don't ask me to come around |
| [04:15.71] |
Then make me wait to see the spark |
