It's that time of year again

When the sky looks like your eyes

And I still pretend

That I am by your side

I climb the hill on the edge of town

And chase the wind

Where the falling leaves are the only sound

Again

So I run through the fields and wait for the moon

And think of the world that I had with you

And lie back and dream of what once was

When October comes

The nights get longer now

The trees blow in the wind

It brings my mind around

To new roads and old friends

It felt so good to be so young

And in between

The boy I used to be lives on

In me

Chorus

Late Fall's a touchstone

Puts me on the other side

There's only time now

There's only time now

So I run through the fields and wait for the moon

And think of the world that I had with you

And lie back and dream of what once was

When October comes
