Lyrics
0:14A long December and there's reason to believe
0:19Maybe this year will be better than the last
0:27I can't remember the last thing that you said as you were leavin'
0:34Now the days go by so fast
0:39And it's one more day up in the canyons
0:46And it's one more night in Hollywood
0:53If you think that I could be forgiven
1:00I wish you would
1:14The smell of hospitals in winter
1:18And the feeling that it's all a lot of oysters but no pearls
1:28All at once you look across a crowded room
1:33To see the way that light attaches to a girl
1:40And it's one more day up in the canyons
1:47And it's one more night in Hollywood
1:54If you think you might come to California
2:01I think you should
2:29Drove up to Hillside Manor sometime after two a m
2:35And talked a little while about the year
2:43I guess the winter makes you laugh a little slower
2:48Makes you talk a little lower about the things you could not show her
2:54And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe
3:02Maybe this year will be better than the last
3:10I can't remember all the times I tried to tell my myself
3:15To hold on to these moments as they pass
3:25And it's one more day up in the canyon
3:32And it's one more night in Hollywood
3:39It's been so long since I've seen the ocean
3:46I guess I should
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
