El Matador Lyrics

Matador sweeps the veil
From the last young day of my life
Malibu tides inhale
Santa Ana winds from behind
Wade out into the water
No more chances this year
I've busied myself all summer
My day for swimmin' is here
Yes, it's time
Seaside revelations
All those dreams and visions of mine
Washed up like a vacation
Lost as I wasted my time
Lookin' through my dark glasses
I see smiles on the faces of friends
But time keeps pushin' me on now
And I'll ride this wave till the end
Please don't go away

Stay awhile, stay awhile
Please don't go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Say goodbye to the weekend
And the last of the summertime sun
Drivin' off the end of a decade
So many things to be done
September and the trees are restless
Wind chimes blow in the dark
Lyin' on the couch defenseless
With blue clouds court and spark
Please don't go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Please don't go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Please don't go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Please don't go away
Why don't you stay awhile? Stay awhile
