a long December
 
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  

words & music by Adam F. Duritz  Counting Crows

 

Je n'arrive pas à comprendre tout le sens de cette chanson, mais il y a des parties qui sont vraiment jolies et la musique me donne en sens de tranquillité.... 
 
 

il y a des fois où on a l'impression que tout ce qui nous entoure et ce qu'on fait, n'a pas une grande valeur, n'est peut-être pas le plus important...ce sont des huîtres, mais sans perles... 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

comme dans toutes les autres chansons, on retrouve cette invitation à tenir bon, parce qu'on peut toujours espérer que la prochaine année sera meilleure...
