Текст песни: Semisonic. El Matador.

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
Ive busied myself all summer
My day for swimming is here
Yes its time
Seaside revelations
All those dreams and visions of mine
Washed up like a vacation
Lost as I wasted my time
Looking through my dark glasses
I see smiles on the faces of friends
But time keeps pushing me on now
And Ill ride this wave till the end
Please dont go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Please dont go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Say goodbye to the weekend
And the last of the summertime sun
Driving off the end of a decade
So many things to be done
September and the trees are restless
Windchimes blow in the dark
Lying on the couch defenseless
With blue clouds court and spark
Please dont go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Please dont go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Please dont go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
Please dont go away
Stay awhile, stay awhile
