October leaves on Massachusetts trees
A sight so fleetingly free
Just how October leaves
Just how October leaves
Just how October leaves me
On fire with the maple trees
On my knees with these leaves on these Boston streets
Praying to a god a godforsaken summer night stole
One fight, one family swallowed whole
Some things, some things just fall apart
Some families stand like November trees; barren and stark
Some things, some things just fall apart
And some memories continue breaking this cold heart
And some sons have a hard time
Looking at things the same
Looking in their father’s eyes
When their heads hang in shame
Highways home become oceans
That I just can’t swim
And the rusty gates of Eden lock
To never let me in
Let me in (oceans of emotions we’ve got to swim)
Let me in
A sight so fleetingly free
Just how October leaves
Just how October leaves
Just how October leaves me
On fire with the maple trees
On my knees with these leaves on these Boston streets
Praying to a god a godforsaken summer night stole
One fight, one family swallowed whole
Some things, some things just fall apart
Some families stand like November trees; barren and stark
Some things, some things just fall apart
And some memories continue breaking this cold heart
And some sons have a hard time
Looking at things the same
Looking in their father’s eyes
When their heads hang in shame
Highways home become oceans
That I just can’t swim
And the rusty gates of Eden lock
To never let me in
Let me in (oceans of emotions we’ve got to swim)
Let me in
