Carly Simon
We Just Got Here
[Verse 1]
There are a few new freckles on your shoulders
The hammock swings lower and touches the grass
The apples are ripe and the corn is past
Everyone says summer goes by so fast
[Chorus]
And we just got here
We just got here
We just arrived
[Verse 2]
I can hardly believe it but it's ended
The beach is a haze and old love's a ghost
Hugo is twisting his way up the coast
If you blew out to sea I'd love you most
[Chorus]
[Break]
Nostalgia you fake, you bittersweet ache
The time that you take could make another heart whole
Could the truth be I won't really see
How much I love you 'til it's over
[Verse 3]
The two of us left here alone in the house
You bleed the pipes while I bring in the plants
Put our faces in place for September’s dance
If you’re willing, I’m willing to take one more chance
[Chorus]
[Outro]
Seems like just a minute ago
We were chasing June bugs in the moon-glow
Fitting screens in the windows
But now it’s getting cold, maybe snow is in the air
And we just got here
It feels like we just got here
