Lyrics
Verse 1
You watch the leaves
Fall down, fall down
I watch you leave
This town, this town
October air
Gets cold, gets cold
What we had there
Gets old, gets old
Chorus
And I keep telling you
Keep telling you
The seasons change
The seasons change
But I keep missing you
Keep missing you
It stays the same
It stays the same
Verse 2
Your jacket hangs
Right there, right there
On that old chair
You don't care, don't care
The coffee's burned
Again, again
Lessons I never learned
Back then, back then
Chorus
And I keep telling you
Keep telling you
The seasons change
The seasons change
But I keep missing you
Keep missing you
It stays the same
It stays the same
Rap
Damn, I thought by now I'd figure out
How to let you go without the doubt
Creeping in when autumn comes around
Same old shit, same old broken sound
Walking through the park where we used to meet
Kicking at the leaves beneath my feet
Every year it hits me just the same
October comes and I'm calling out your name
But you ain't coming back, I know that's true
Still I sit here talking straight to you
Like you're gonna hear me through the rain
Like you're gonna help me through the pain
But fall keeps falling, that's what fall does
And I keep falling for what never was
So I'll write these words and let them be
October fades, but not the memory
Bridge
You used to say
You used to say
"Winter's coming soon"
"Winter's coming soon"
Now I pray
Now I pray
For something new
For something new
Chorus
And I keep telling you
Keep telling you
The seasons change
The seasons change
But I keep missing you
Keep missing you
It stays the same
It stays the same
Outro
You watch the leaves
Fall down, fall down
I'm still here
In this town, this town
