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'
AND 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
NA NA NA NA
NA NA NA NA NA NA NA
AH NA NA
NA NA NA NA
YEAH EH EH
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
NA NA NA NA

YEAH EH EH
4 BAR
BREAK
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 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
