Go, back, home to Papa,
See all your friends
Oh, so, close to Mama,
Settling in
Does it have to be an endless season?
Sympathetic, but you gave no reason
Too long, too long
Too long, it's too long
Life, cut, knife-divided,
You're broken in two
Love, long, love decided,
The best thing for you
Take a break and go away for summer,
I'll be writing yet another number
And I shaved when you left,
Grew a beard that I kept,
To pretend no time had passed
How long can a summer last?
(too long, too long, too long)
Too long, too long
It's too long, too long
It's far far far too long
Too long
