"Winter A Go-Go" lyrics - YO LA TENGO

On the beach overseas
Icy water slaps at our knees
And the buoy was signaling
As if it knew we were far from home

Then you looked at me
And all I could see
Were the lights that were flickering
And suddenly we were all alone

It's not an impossible thing to do
Yet I'm helpless to do anything for you
I can't keep from wondering

You were under a spell
Waiting for time to tell
If I could, you know I would
Accept this moment and sympathize

Then you looked at me
And then all I could see
Were the walls closing again
And the desperation in your eyes

It's not an impossible thing to do
I know there's a better life for you
I can't keep from wondering

It's not an impossible thing to do
And I'm helpless to say anything to you
I want to see a better life for you
But I can't keep from wondering
