Leaves fall
In the cool October air
Days grow short
And I can't remember where I saw you last
Turned against the summer light
Walking off
On that final longest night
I was there
On my knees
All alone
In a world
Where nothing ever stays the same
I am laying
With only things I cannot change
You've gone away
With only things I cannot change
Smoke will rise
And the fire always burns
Sands will drift
And tides will turn
And I can't wrestle with the sea
Rearrange the sky
Or fight against the wind
Any more than I can bring
You back
To me
In a world
Where nothing ever stays the same
I am laying
With only things I cannot change
You've gone away
And left me things I cannot change
So far away
And left me things I cannot change
So far away
And left me things I cannot change
And left me things I cannot change
And left me things I cannot change
