David Duchovny - Lately It's Always December lyrics

[Verse 1] Cowgirl gaze and a sailor's mouth Legs for days and a home down south You had the answers no matter they were wrong You had that come hither, go away, but don't be gone too long Gypsy ways and the sideway smile You bet on forever but got dealt just a while Slept with your boots on, how I miss that sound Not even yours now, how the hell could you be mine? [Hook] But maybe you can remember Baby, you can dream Lately things have been better It only hurts when I breathe And if I close my eyes I see whatever I want to see [Verse 2] Don't know who to talk to Don't know what hand to hold Don't know who to hang up on Or how to keep the fool from fool's gold There's a key that we lost, through the door in the floor There's a line that's been crossed, that says "no, hell no, no more" Cold blue stares and all this back and forth It's raining in the east and it's frozen up north The sun sinks west past the dark side of the moon The streets are all iced over and our love lays in ruin [Hook] But maybe it hurts to remember Baby, it hurts not to dream It hurts when you turn out the lights at night and see what I want you to see If you close your eyes forever Can't you see what you want to see? Maybe you get the feeling That things aren't quite as they seem It hurts when you close your eyes at night It hurts when you sleep and dream Lately it's always December And things are as bad as they seem It hurts all the time Cause it's only you, only you that I dream
