Hard Candy Lyrics
On certain Sundays in November,
When the whether bothers me,
I empty
draws of other summers,
Where my shadows used to be,
She is standing
by the water,
As her smile begins to curl,
In this or any other
summer,
She is something all together different,
Never just an
ordanairy girl.
And in the evenings on Long Island,
When the
colours start to fade,
She wears a silly yellow hat,
That someone
gave her when she stayed,
I didn't think that she returned it,
We
left New York in a whirl,
Time expands and then contracts,
When
you are spinning in the grips of someone,
Who is not an ordanairy
girl.
And when you sleep, you find your mother in the night,
But
she fades just out of sight,
So there isn't any sweetness in the
dreaming,
And when you wake, the morning covers you with light,
And
it makes you feel alright,
But its just the same hard candy your
remembering again.
You send your lover off to China,
Then you awit
for her to call,
You put your girl upon a pedestal,
And you wait
fro her to fall,
I put my summers back in a letter,
And I hide it
from the world,
All the regrets you can't forget,
Are somehow
pressed upon the picture,
In the face of such an ordanairy girl.
And when you sleep,
You find your mother in the night,
But she
fades just out of sight,
So there isn't any sweetness in thee
dreaming,
And when you wake, the morning showers you with light,
But its just the same hard candy, your remembering again,
Again,
again, again, again.
And its just the same hard candy your remembering
again.
Go ask her to come around,
And see me late, after
dark,
Don't ask me to go around,
And wait to see if theres a spark
