Lyrics
[VERSE]
Summer escaped
And fall swept through
On the breeze
Is where I found you
Red and orange,
Flames kissed the trees
Under the maple in your yard
Is where you first kissed me
[CHORUS]
We sit outside your father's house
Wait til all the lights go out
Til it's just me, you, and the November moon
We huddle close and count the stars
Remember just how small we are
But like all good things you'll be leaving soon
[VERSE]
September left
And in its final breaths
Last gasps of summer, the skies wept
October came and we were in bloom
Halloween, and revelry,
Carved a heart into that old maple tree
But something deep inside me
Knew that something couldn't be
[CHORUS]
We sit outside your father's house
Wait til all the lights go out
Til it's just me, you, and the November moon
We huddle close and count the stars
Remember just how small we are
But like all good things you'll be leaving soon
[VERSE]

And in its final breaths
Last gasps of summer, the skies wept
October came and we were in bloom
Halloween, and revelry,
Carved a heart into that old maple tree
But something deep inside me
Knew that something couldn't be
[CHORUS]
We sit outside your father's house
Wait til all the lights go out
Til it's just me, you, and the November moon
We huddle close and count the stars
Remember just how small we are
But like all good things you'll be leaving soon
[SLIDE GUITAR]
[BRIDGE]
You say you've got to be going soon
Stay the night I beg of you
"What good would that do?"
And you smile that little smile
"Of all the time we've got left,
Why leave it all with loose ends?
Know that though seasons change,
My heart still remains."
[GUITAR AND VIOLIN SOLO]
[CHORUS]
I sit outside your father's house
And wait til all the lights go out
Til it's me alone under the November moon
[CHORUS 2]
And when the summer leaves
And fall reigns as queen
You'll be back again,
So brief and so sweet
But it's something real
That I can hold on to
[SLIDE GUITAR SOLO]
