El Matador

Semisonic

Matador sweeps the veil 
From the last young day of my life 
Malibu tides inhale 
Santa Ana Winds from behind 

Wade out into the water 
No more chances this year 
I've busied myself all summer 
My day for swimming is here 
Yes it's time 

Seaside revelations 
All those dreams and visions of mine 
Washed up like a vacation 
Lost as I wasted my time 

Looking through my dark glasses 
I see smiles on the faces of friends 
But time keeps pushing me on now 
And I'll ride this wave till the end 

Please don't go away 
Stay awhile, stay awhile 
Please don't go away 
Stay awhile, stay awhile 

Say goodbye to the weekend 
And the last of the summertime sun 
Driving off the end of a decade 
So many things to be done 

September and the trees are restless 
Windchimes blow in the dark 
Lying on the couch defenseless 
With blue clouds court and spark 

Please don't go away 
Stay awhile, stay awhile 
Please don't go away 
Stay awhile, stay awhile 

Please don't go away 
Stay awhile, stay awhile 
Please don't go away 
Stay awhile, stay awhile
