Dan steely reelin' in the years lyrics

Your everlasting summer, and you can see it fadin' fast

So you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last

But you wouldn't even know a diamond if you held it in your hand

The things you think are precious I can't understand



Are you reelin' in the years

Stowin' away the time

Are you gatherin' up the tears

Have you had enough of mine

Are you reelin' in the years

Stowin' away the time

Are you gatherin' up the tears

Have you had enough of mine



You've been telling me you were a genius since you were seveteen

In all the time I've known you I still don't know what you mean

The weekend at the college didn't turn out like you planned

The things that pass for knowledge I can't understand



Are you reelin' in the years

Stowin' away the time

Are you gatherin' up the tears

Have you had enough of mine

Are you reelin' in the years

Stowin' away the time

Are you gatherin' up the tears

Have you had enough of mine



I've spent a lot of money and I've spent a lot of time

The trip we made to Hollywood is etched upon my mind

After all the things we've done and seen you find another man

The things you think are useless I can't understand



Are you reelin' in the years

Stowin' away the time

Are you gatherin' up the tears

Have you had enough of mine

Are you reelin' in the years

Stowin' away the time

Are you gatherin' up the tears

Have you had enough of mine
