October Song - Kathy Mattea

The leaves are falling, silhouetted by the sunset

Brushed across a cold October sky

The geese are calling, and it’s really anyone’s guess

How long before the snowflakes fly

And when I’ll be over you, there’s just no way to say when

Cuz as it is, I still miss you so

But I keep praying and waiting for that day when

I can finally let you go

And when at last I drift asleep, those dreams of you

Come back to keep me

Wishing I were lying in your arms

Those memories of when we made love

Are just so hard to let go of

Who am I supposed to be

When there’s so much of you in me

Still every morning I keep searching for that sunrise

That lets me know this heartache’s disappeared

But every evening, all I can see is your eyes

Reminding me that you’re not here

Now the leaves are falling and the wind is growing colder

The ground will soon be painted white with snow

And still I wonder, while bidding farewell to October

When I can finally let you go

When I can finally let you go
