A Long December

Counting Crows

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
