October Trees - Ron Pope

Wait for the light to come back on

You seem lost, your back against the wall

It’s cold outside, it is winter in your heart

Your eyes go blind, you are shrouded in a fog

So can we change?

Or is this surrender?

I once loved your grace

And the innocence that fell from you like leafs

Spiral off October trees

You know I love you

What else do you want from me?

The wind cuts through and it chills me to the bone

The sunlight feels like a ghost that’s so far gone

A sad old song keeps on ringing in my head

The darkest time seems to be the miles ahead

So can we change?

Or is this surrender?

I once loved your grace

And the innocence that fell from you like leafs

Spiral off October trees

You know I love you

What else do you want from me?

Where is your dignity?

Where is your pride?

Where is the love that you once had inside?

Where is your dignity?

Where is your pride?

Where is the voice that was always your guide?

Where is your dignity?

Where is your pride?

Where is the love that you once had inside?

Where is your dignity?

Where is your pride?

So can we change?

Or is this surrender?

I once loved your grace

And the innocence that fell from you like leafs

Spiral off October trees

You know I love you

So can we change?

Or is this surrender?

I once loved your grace

And the innocence that fell from you like leafs

Spiral off October trees

You know I love you

What else do you want from me?

Where is your dignity?

Where is your pride?

Where is the love that you once had inside?

Where is your dignity?

Where is your pride?

Where is the voice that was always your guide?

Where is your dignity?

Where is your pride?

Where is the love that you once had inside?

Where is your dignity?

Where is your pride?
