The rain pulls me awake on this warm Autumn morning the melancholy sky of grey comforts like a cave You didn't stay last night and maybe that's the right thing And letting go is truly for the brave I tried so many times to pick up the pieces of this broken moon we left hanging in the sky I have no illusions Only disappointments There's only so much you can do For it's time to say goodbye say goodbye... October rain the bitter knowing change So let's make love before the snow falls from the sky we both saw the sunrise and both felt the pain So now let it wash away October rain As this cold wind blows us through the narrow winter the broken leaves of all we hoped for fall onto the ground I hope you will remember The beauty of the summer when I found you in the garden with your brown hair hanging down Sometimes love is wary and slips between the shadows hides within the darkness like a moon upon the wane but you still found the way through the tangled weeds and brambles So I will always think of you in the autumn when it rains When it rains October rain the bitter knowing change So let's make love before the snow falls from the sky we both saw the sunrise and both felt the pain So now let it wash away October rain we both saw the sunrise and both felt the pain So now let it wash away October rain
