COUNTING CROWS - A Long December lyrics

rate me

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 wereleavin`

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

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

Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not showher

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
