Summer came too early
Springtime came too late
Weather went from freezing
To bleached out summer days

Holed up in your bedroom
Hiding like two thieves
Counting up the hours
For the perfect time to leave

Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
It just don't matter what they say

Nighttime through this desert
Driving straight out west
Stop for gas and coffee
Close your eyes for rest

I wonder what you're dreaming
While we're halfway cross this bridge
We've come too far to turn back
We're just too close to quit

Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
It just don't matter what they say
Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
Woo, hoo

Holed up in your bedroom
Hiding like two thieves
Counting up the hours
For the perfect time to leave

Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
It just don't matter what they say
Woo, hoo
We're learning the hard way
Woo, hoo
Woo, hoo

Woo, hoo
Woo, hoo

Gin Blossoms is an American rock band formed in 1987 in Tempe, Arizona. They rose to prominence following the 1992 release of their first major label album, New Miserable Experience, and the first single released from that album, “Hey Jealousy”. “Hey Jealousy” became a Top 25 hit and went gold, and New Miserable Experience eventually went quadruple platinum; four other charting singles were released from the album. The band’s follow-up album, Congratulations I’m Sorry (1996), went platinum and the single “As Long as It Matters” was nominated for a Grammy Award. Gin Blossoms broke up in 1997. Since reuniting in 2001, the band has released Major Lodge Victory in 2006, No Chocolate Cake in 2010, and Mixed Reality in 2018.
