[00:13.79]On certain Sundays in November
[00:17.59]When the weather bothers me
[00:20.27]I empty drawers of other summers
[00:23.47]Where my shadows used to be
[00:26.43]And she is standing by the water
[00:29.94]As her smile begins to curl
[00:32.94]In this or any other summer
[00:36.13]She is something altogether different
[00:40.08]Never just an ordinary girl
[00:43.99]🎵
[00:50.19]And in the evenings on Long Island
[00:53.61]When the colors start to fade
[00:56.45]She wears a silly yellow hat
[00:59.71]That someone gave her when she stayed
[01:02.98]I didn't think that she returned it
[01:06.17]We left New York in a whirl
[01:09.37]Time expands and then contracts
[01:12.27]When you are spinning in the grips of someone
[01:16.54]Who is not an ordinary girl
[01:20.31]And when you sleep
[01:21.84]You find your mother in the night
[01:25.30]But she stays just out of sight
[01:28.52]So there isn't any sweetness in the dreaming
[01:35.84]And when you wake
[01:37.55]The morning covers you with light
[01:41.25]And it makes you feel alright
[01:44.32]But it's just the same hard candy
[01:47.46]You're remembering again
[01:50.03]🎵
[01:56.58]You send your lover off to China
[02:00.17]Then you wait for her to call
[02:02.10]You put your girl up on a pedestal
[02:06.67]Then you wait for her to fall
[02:09.45]I put my summers back in a letter
[02:12.78]And I hide it from the world
[02:15.54]All the regrets you can't forget
[02:18.73]Are somehow pressed upon a picture
[02:22.22]In the face of such an ordinary girl
[02:26.69]And when you sleep
[02:28.28]You find your mother in the night
[02:31.84]But she stays just out of sight
[02:35.06]So there isn't any sweetness in the dreaming
[02:42.15]And when you wake
[02:43.84]The morning showers you with light
[02:47.61]And it makes you feel alright
[02:50.76]But it's just the same hard candy
[02:53.81]You're remembering again
[02:56.57]Again and again, again and again, again
[03:01.54]And it's just the same hard candy
[03:04.88]You're remembering again
[03:07.62]Again and again, again and again, again
[03:12.34]And it's just the same hard candy
[03:16.02]You're remembering again
[03:18.89]🎵
[03:34.51]Go ask her to come around
[03:37.77]And see me late after dark
[03:40.96]Don't ask me to come around
[03:43.96]Then wait to see if there's a spark
[03:47.12]Go ask her to come around
[03:50.48]And see me late after dark
[03:53.52]Don't ask me to come around
[03:56.69]Then make me wait to see the spark
[03:59.83]Go ask her to come around
[04:03.22]Late and see me after dark
[04:06.18]Don't ask me to come around
[04:09.19]Then wait to if there is a spark
[04:12.40]Go ask her to come around
[04:15.81]Late and see me late after dark
[04:18.73]Don't ask me...
