When I feel the morning grass I let down my guard
Because love comes from the dirt in my own backyard

Everytime I think I've finished being young
I catch myself having fun
But the moment passes as the sun moves on
So I turn myself back to you

On a diamond in the rough I spent my better years
I still see her in the crowd with diamonds in her ears
And it's depressing that I can't forget the tune the organist played
la da da da da da da, la da da da da da da...

Everytime I think I've finished being young
I catch myself having fun
But the moment passes as the son moves on
So I turn myself back to you

Is our season over?
No four leaf clover
I feel it's getting colder
Now that it's late fall

But can you still remember?
April to November
You and I were members
Of the best team in baseball

So we play our games
I've got a girlfriend
You've found a new guy
But it's not the same

And so I drive
Straight up i-5
To let you know I'm still alive

    General Comment:I love this song so much. It's really emotional for me, as it was playing during me and my ex girlfriend's first kiss. Which was my first kiss. I love this song song much, it's brilliant. 4:05 onwards makes me tear up.

    General Comment:Ozma is now back together again...I just came back from their Reunion tour's stop in San Diego...

    That was simply the best news I've heard in a long while...

    As for the song, I think fungi2510 has got it down pretty well.

    General Comment:I do not think that the girl in the song was not his gf, excuse the double negative. I think that they dated and now he wants everything back. I do not think he is much past his high school years. He does not want his childhood back. That is not childhood. They have kept in contact but scarcely, bc he knows where she lives. I do not think that he wants her back, but he wants her to think of him like he thinks of her. We all just want to be loved as much as we love. They have moved on, but that first real love is always special. It is baseball for most of us boys, so that is why Ozma used it. Baseball and first loves are very intertwined.
    I can connect with the song well, because I had a gf my Senior Year of baseball and I remember looking into the stands everytime I stepped to the plate. Her smiling face made everything alright. We never have that after "baseball" is over.

    General Comment:this song makes me cry...simply because it was playing when my ex boyfriend kissed me for the 1st time. i rememebr him singing the line "is our season over, no four leaf clover" and that line still makes my heart skip a beat.

    and its just very funny how this was labeled 'our song' even though its kind of a break up song..and it makes sense for what actually happened to us. well..minus the whole baseball thing.

    *sigh*

    General Comment:Whoever said that this song is called "Weezer-Starlight" on some file-sharing systems: Yeah, it is. I have no idea why, but I'm so glad it is. I've been a weezer fan like crazy for a while, and I was searching for some more weezer rarities, and I found this song. And that got me into ozma, which is definitely one of the best bands in existence.

    General Comment:This is SUCH a good song.. very addicting. My favorite part is definately:

    "Is our season over?
    No four leaf clover
    I feel it's getting colder
    Now that it's late fall

    But can you still remember?
    April to November
    You and I were members
    Of the best team in baseball"

    General Comment:I think he and a female friend (not a girlfriend) used to maybe flirt, but never date. They are both in realtionships now, but theirs was always different. "so we play our games" refers to both baseball, and flirtations. It's like she's the true love of his life, but they are not menat to be lovers, just best friends
