lyrics

The sun is rising like a swollen reverie.
October's here; I wear my memories on my sleeve.
I tried to stay but there were masks to wear
and leaves to chase.
I miss you now but, not to worry,
nothing’s changed.

I don’t even mind
that I’m not doing anything
of any consequence in my life.
I’ve got all the time in the world.

Wrap me up inside an acorn shell.
Toss me to a pile of leaves.
Light my love on fire, dear, and watch
the night sky bleed.

The rain came down and washed away the scent
of you and me.
It covered up whatever I was going to say.
I love the autumn ‘cause it makes me want to fall -
let go my will and I’ll drift anywhere at all.

I don’t even mind
that I’m not doing anything
of any consequence in my life.
I’ve got all the time in the world.
