October Leaves Songtext

von The Good Life

I stumbled in at 3 a.m.
But you didn't want to
I tried again at half past ten
You still don't want to
Your hips have this way of saying no way
An impenetrable barricade

Something I said? Something I did?
What's made you so defensive?
Something you heard? Something you learned?
The season's changing, it's for the worse

You used to call me on your break
But you've been so busy
You used to bring me tomato soup
But you keep forgetting
As the groundskeeper rakes up the October leaves
It occurs to me, trees can't hide anything

Something I said? Something I did?
You've been acting so distant
Something you heard? Something you learned?
The trees are barren, the leaves have turned

The days when we made it the world was green
Now autumn has fallen, everything's changed
October leaves

I woke up this morning
You were off to work
No kisses, no coffee
No morning paper

"Hey"
"Yes?"
"Are you sleeping?"
"No"
"Can I ask you something?"
"Yes"
"Are you cheating on me?"
"No"
"Are you lying?"
