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

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...
