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 leaving 
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

Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na

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 [bad word] to California...I think you should

Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na yeah yeah

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 

Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na yeah yeah

Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na yeah yeah yeah yeah

Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Na-na-na-na
