Grab your gloves and your winter clothes, it's the first snow we have seen all year. Make our way to the big parade, the one we love that comes this time of year.
I've never felt so right as I feel here tonight. Take this carriage ride and let's make plans tonight for the rest of our lives.

If ever there was a time and a chance that you could be mine, that chance has up and died and I'm staring at your photograph
And you cannot love me now, you cannot love me now.
Winking eyes no surprise how quickly I might fall again. I made that same mistake if only you had never been a friend
Sometimes when we pass by I remember what you said. How you never wanted me to let you go. Sometime when we're older we'll look back and laugh at all these broken dreams and first crush schemes.
All that's left is a hole where my heart used to be. I gave it once to you, but you never owed me anything
And you cannot love me now, you cannot love me now

Sitting here bores me to tears, passes all our time, I wish you were here.
So hold me now in this slumber all the way until December. Then we'll stay, hibernation, nothing can stop fascination.
Looking at old photographs, pictures of a girl, pictures of my world
Sitting here bores me to tears, never let me go.

You came here all the way from Europe. Three month exchange and your will make yourself at home. You showed me all the things you're sure of. And as the summer's ending, so it is with us.
And when you board your plane, you'll turn around and say, "It was just a fling, it didn't mean a thing." And as I wave goodbye with tears in my eyes. Commercial airlines against the blue skies, don't you know you're leaving me tonight?
In broken English you said plainly, "You fat Americans are boring. You're ugly and you've no adventure." And as the summer's ending, so it is with us.

Summer Game

June, July and August time. I'd like to know those days are here again. But all since when this will begin in one boy's summer dream. The ocean is as smooth as a pane of glass, reflecting all the dreams that we thought would last.
Why are you playing your summer game, why are you saying another name? Why are you playing your summer game, and who is it this time.
The ocean is as smooth as a pane of glass reflecting all the dreams that we thought would last, but here again, it will begin in one boy's summer dream.

Do you remember the time you broke my heart standing in the checkout line? Do you remember the day, I'm not quite sure, but it was close to Christmas time.
Reading all your books and magazines. Can you tell me who's the latest fashion queen? Or all the boys who caught your eye, if you told me it would be no big surprise.
Do you remember the time you broke my heart standing in the coffee line. Do you remember the day, I'm not quite sure but it was close to Christmas time.

She can stop a speeding train with just a shake of her hips. She can sing the saddest song with just some words from her lips. She's a mystery and you know she's keeping secrets, but is she meant for me? All signs point to yes.
And now she looks much older even when the weather's colder. She could change her mind just like the seasons

Peace be still. My soul be still. Calm the seas. The stormy, stormy seas
I feel you in the summer days. I feel you in the ocean waves

Fits & Starts
by a certain smile (& my lil underground records)
supported by 7 fans who also own “All The Way Until December”
I have several problems with a member of this band, so I'm disinclined to like this album. However, exceptional music speaks for itself, and this album really is exceptional, from the guitar work to the vocals to the production. As painful as it is for me to write these words, this is among the best releases of the year and firmly belongs in the collection of anyone who cares about contemporary indiepop.
