Forest outside Winston-Salem open your eyes
Churning burgundy and carmel leaves
And the grey Carolina skies
Offers wind
So I can float on by
The grey Carolina skies
Offers home tonight
Like a ferris wheel
Oh, spinning by
Like a ferris wheel
Oh, October's slipping by
October's slipping by, yeah
Naked are the meadows
The copper times have gone
Without the lights from heaven
Purlow leaves are winter's sun
Grey Carolina skies
Offers wind
So I can float on by
Grey Carolina skies
Offers home tonight
Home tonight
Like a ferris wheel
Oh, spinning by
Like a ferris wheel
Oh, October's slipping by, yeah
October's slipping by, yeah
Western coast I flew
Early in November
Violet and orange
Paint highway times
Blue California skies
Offers wind
So I can float on by
Blue California skies
Offers home tonight
Home tonight
Like a ferris wheel
Oh, spinning by
Like a ferris wheel
Oh, it's spinning by, yeah
Like a ferris wheel
Oh, it's spinning by
Like a ferris wheel
Oh, October's slipping by, yeah
November's slipping by, yeah
Oo, December's slipping by
December's slipping by
