Autumn
But you’re warming up
With auburn locks anticipating northern falls
(anticipating northern falls)
You speak
In reds and browns
A different sound where holidays come from
(where holidays come from)

And I know I’m less than half of those you never get to see
And I know you can’t get over how our trees refuse to sleep
And I cannot help you recollect the place you call before
But here’s my heart, just hang it on the corner of your door

Give me
Your tired hands
The sun and sand it has begun to take its toll
(imprinting deep onto your soul)
Pleading
For greens and whites
I’ll hold them tight, give them brand new things to know
(is this how it’s supposed to go)

But I know it’s hard to hang around someone that sounds like me
And I know it’s disconcerting that our trees refuse to sleep
And I cannot help you recollect the place you were before
But here’s my heart, just hang it on the corner of your door

And I know I’m less than half of those you never get to see
And I know you can’t get over how our trees refuse to sleep
And I cannot help you recollect the place you call before
But here’s my heart, just hang it on the corner of your door
