Hard Candy - Counting Crows.mp3

[00:14.61]On certain Sundays in November
[00:17.93]When the weather bothers me
[00:20.75]I empty drawers of other summers
[00:23.94]Where my shadows used to be
[00:26.98]She is standing by the water
[00:30.60]As her smile begins to curl
[00:33.47]In this or any other summer
[00:36.73]She is something altogether different
[00:40.69]Never just an ordinary girl
[00:51.01]And in the evenings on Long Island
[00:54.50]When the colors start to fade
[00:57.00]She wears a silly yellow hat
[01:00.18]That someone gave her when she stayed
[01:03.30]I didn't think that she returned it
[01:06.42]We left New York in a whirl
[01:09.75]Time expands and then contracts
[01:12.81]When you are spinning
[01:15.28]In the grips of someone
[01:17.42]Who is not an ordinary girl
[01:20.73]When you sleep
[01:22.35]You find your mother in the night
[01:25.53]But she stays just out of sight
[01:28.90]So there isn't any sweetness in the dreaming
[01:36.64]And when you wake
[01:38.28]the morning covers you with light
[01:41.85]And it makes you feel alright
[01:44.86]But it's just the same hard candy
[01:47.89]You're remembering again
[01:51.26]
[01:57.34]You send your lover off to China
[02:00.68]Then you wait for her to call
[02:03.55]You put your girl up on a pedestal
[02:06.93]Then you wait for her to fall
[02:09.63]I put my summers back in a letter
[02:13.25]And I hide it from the world
[02:16.07]All the regrets you can't forget
[02:19.22]Are somehow pressed upon a picture
[02:23.16]In the face of such an ordinary girl
[02:27.15]When you sleep
[02:28.60]You find your mother in the night
[02:32.23]But she fades just out of sight
[02:35.34]So there isn't any sweetness in the dreaming
[02:40.97]
[02:42.72]And when you wake
[02:44.72]the morning showers you with light
[02:48.09]And it makes you feel alright
[02:51.23]But it's just the same hard candy
[02:54.27]You're remembering again
[02:58.11]
[02:58.73]Again, again, again, again
[03:00.41]
[03:03.03]It's just the same hard candy
[03:05.34]You're remembering again
[03:08.23]Again, again again, again
[03:13.42]And it's just the same hard candy
[03:16.42]You're remembering again
[03:19.98]
[03:35.31]Go ask her to come around
[03:38.74]And see me late after dark
[03:41.42]Don't ask me to come around
[03:44.29]Then wait to if there's a spark
[03:47.85]Go ask her to come around
[03:50.92]And see me late after dark
[03:53.92]Don't ask me to come around
[03:57.11]Then make me wait to see the spark
[04:00.30]Go ask her to come around
[04:03.89]Late and see me after dark
[04:06.57]Don't ask me to come around
[04:09.75]Then wait to see if there is a spark
[04:12.64]Go ask her to come around
[04:14.96]And see me late after dark
[04:15.52]Don't ask me to come around
[04:15.71]Then make me wait to see the spark
