October

Rubbing an eye, searching the sky for rain

Cause your wheels can slip if the road's still slick in your lane

Speeding along, you're singing a song to me

You gotta guide your ride around every puddle you see

Saving up your skipping stones,

and I think that I know why.

You were bubbling a chewing gum

with a cartoon gleam in your eye.

I wish you could have seen it for yourself

Goodbye July, you're searching the sky for snow

Yeah it's cold outside but you're not confined to your home

Your mittens are on, you're singing a song to me

You gotta watch these seasons that freeze all over the green

Jumping in a pile of leaves,

Cause you can't do that all year.

Just like pushing off a plowtruck's hill,

as a way to pull you near.

I wish you could have felt it for yourself.

From the way you talked, I'd have thought you older

From the way you shook, I'd have thought you colder

Turn to face and your left's my right, October

Turn away and we're sharing sides, is over

Daisies for my love...

Well I thank you dear, but that will not be enough

From the way you talked, I'd have thought you older

That's just the way I am

From the way you shook, I'd have thought you colder

That's just the way I am

Turn to face and your left's my right, October

That's just the way we are

Turn away and we're sharing sides, is over

That's just the way we are.
