Why should I be stunned when winds begin to change? Clearest skies turn slowly into rain The leaves throw off their green Nothing new about this scene Still I want you here with me 'Cause that's the way it used to be Tell me there's a reason For every stupid season November freezes everything in sight I'm fine all day, I think of you at night Loving you was like a trip around the world Spires of gold, skylines made of pearls
From the mountains of Peru all the way to Kathmandu Now I'm sitting here alone And I just want you to come home Maybe I was not The person that you thought A joke I made You never got Time has its way with everyone You can't stop the circle of the sun But you can pull down all the shades You can wait for better days Throw another blanket on 'Til the winter's come and gone
