Long Island
that dog
Retreat From the Sun

---

You’re pretty dreamy for a boy from Long Island
You should come to see me on my western horizon
It seems as though our paths were never meant to meet
But I just look at you and know you’re pretty sweet
I want to set a place for you at my table
We could sit forever watching reruns on cable
I’ll take you driving in my brother’s beat up car
Sharing a cigarette we’ll wish upon a star together
So you say you like my shirt
I like your shirt
And you say you’ve got a lot just like ‘em
I’ve got a lot just like ‘em
And I hear you wrote a song about me
La la la la
By definition a crush must hurt
And they do, and they do
Just like the one I have on you
I want to set a place for you at my table
We could sit forever watching reruns on cable
It seems as though our paths were never meant to meet
But I just look at you and know you’re pretty sweet
So you say you like my shirt
And you say you’ve got a lot just like ‘em
And I hear you wrote a song about me
By definition a crush must hurt
And they do, and they do
Just like the one I have on you
You’re pretty dreamy for a boy from Long Island
You should come to see me on my western horizon
I’ll take you driving in my brother’s beat up car
Sharing a cigarette we’ll wish upon a star together
