And that summer only lasted one day

I'm in the mirror with the Rickenbacker twelve string

I'm in the mirror with my best friend twelve string

The day that you will love me, will never arrive

We were almost it

We almost went somewhere

Charm of the tear-down left behind

Not to be who I am

Takes a lot of work this time

To lock everything back up inside

Trying to worship sixties California

In our not so contemporary ways

Everybody's got their heart in a wheelchair

The lazy eye of the sun comes up slowly

And a million candle-lit cities disappear

But it doesn't matter that I love your smile
