When October Comes

The summer light is fading slow The streets are quiet after the

rain I still remember that old window Where you called my name

The photographs are turning yellow The years are running through my hands

I was a kid who thought forever Was something I could understand

And every autumn brings me back

To places I don't wanna lose

Some memories don't disappear

They just learn how to move

When October comes And the leaves fall down

I still hear your voice In this empty town Time keeps moving

on But some things remain

Like a song we wrote In the pouring rain

I used to think that growing older

Meant leaving everything behind

But every scar becomes a story Every goodbye becomes a sign The

old guitar is in my bedroom

The strings are broken but it stays

A little piece of who I was A little piece of yesterday

Maybe we were never ready

Maybe nobody ever is

Maybe losing what we love Is how we learn to live

When October comes I won't close my eyes I will face the

morning I will watch the sunrise All the years we lost All

the dreams we saved Are still alive

Inside the songs we made

The summer is gone

(ooh) But I'm still here
