Winter A-Go-Go by Yo La Tengo Lyrics

[Verse 1]
On the beach overseas
Icy water slaps at our knees
And the buoy was signaling
As if it knew we were far from home
And you looked at me
And all I could see
Were the lights that were flickering
And suddenly we were all alone

[Chorus]
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's not an impossible thing to do (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
And I'm helpless to do anything for you (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Can't keep from wondering

[Verse 2]
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 (looked at me)
And all I can see (when you looked at me)
Were the walls closing in again
And the desperation in your eyes
[Chorus]
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's not an impossible thing to do (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
I know there's a better life for you (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
I can't keep from wondering

[Outro]
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
It's not an impossible thing to do (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
And I'm helpless to say anything to you (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
Oh ohohohhh oh ohhh oh ohhh oh ohhhh (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
I want to see a better life for you (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
But I can't keep from wondering
