The autumn leaves
They seem to agree with me
We are both missing you
So we got together to talk about when
The twist of time
Still for us, was undefined
And on a dotted line
We both treaded lightly, hoping things would grow
We stayed the same
And you let me go
Just as the winter winds came
But I see your highs, I see your lows
I see them everywhere I go
That rosy smile, the tears that flow
I see them everywhere I go
'Cause into my eyes and down to the bone
I can see you, feel you as a whole
But when it all comes around
I still sleep alone
But you brought me back
And I kind of talked you into that
Called up and begged you to
'Cause I had so much more to say to you
And so I did
I fucking told you everything
Things that I'd never said
You dissected me and told me I was fine
Christmas came
We stayed the same
So once again we parted ways
But I see your highs, I see your lows
I see them everywhere I go
That rosy smile, the tears that flow
I see them everywhere I go
'Cause into my eyes and down to the bone
I can see you, feel you as a whole
But when it all comes around
I still sleep alone
Back and forth and forth and back we went
With all the strenuous approaches to get back again
Mixed with a regular display of the clichés surrounding "just friend"
And the tower built to fall, we built back up again
Till all the pieces were tainted into crumbled moraine
And the erosion of the year called emotional commotion
Wouldn't let us build it back up again
"To break all ties between you and I
Let's make it right with a final goodbye and then we are free"
So I held my hand with a rock 'n' roll band
But it seems like I stand here alone in the sand
Just me and the autumn leaves
But I see your highs, I see your lows
I see them everywhere I go
That rosy smile, the tears that flow
I see them everywhere I go
'Cause into my eyes and down to the bone
I can see you, feel you as a whole
But when it all comes around
I still sleep alone
I see your highs, I see your lows
I see them everywhere I go
That rosy smile, the tears that flow
I see them everywhere I go
'Cause into my eyes and down to the bone
I can see you, feel you as a whole
But when it all comes around
I still sleep alone
