November Moon

[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] 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 [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] [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." [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK] [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 [GUITAR SOLO] [GUITAR SOLO] [GUITAR SOLO] [INSTRUMENTAL BREAK] [END] [NOVEMBER MOON]
