"October" lyrics
Are you disappointed?
Things are far from what they seem
And do you watch me wary of what you might see?
Do you regret your invitation or your courtesy?
Or are you running out of patience?
As you leave so politely
What is becoming of the two of us?
I'm turning time back just to rise above
As if we've never been, never been here before
Praying on a better ending or just something
So we'll stop pretending
As if we've never been, never been here before
Oh oh oh
More than an arm around this shoulder
More like a light along the way
This flower that bloomed in late October
Oh, the only colour amongst the grey
How I wish that it could have remained this way
Oh oh oh
What is becoming of the two of us?
I'm turning time back just to rise above
As if we've never been, no, never been here before
Praying on a better ending or just something
So we'll stop pretending
As if we've never been, never been here before
Oh oh oh
Oh, I could take you in
Or I could pull you under
I wanna take you in
But l may pull you under
Oh, darling I could take you in
But I may pull you under
Oh, darling l could take you in
But I don't wanna pull you under
Oh, what is becoming of the two of us?
I'm turning time back just to rise above
Oh, as if we've never been, no, never been here before
Praying on a better ending or just something
So we'll stop pretending
As if we've never been, never been here before
Oh oh oh
Things are far from what they seem
And do you watch me wary of what you might see?
Do you regret your invitation or your courtesy?
Or are you running out of patience?
As you leave so politely
What is becoming of the two of us?
I'm turning time back just to rise above
As if we've never been, never been here before
Praying on a better ending or just something
So we'll stop pretending
As if we've never been, never been here before
Oh oh oh
More than an arm around this shoulder
More like a light along the way
This flower that bloomed in late October
Oh, the only colour amongst the grey
How I wish that it could have remained this way
Oh oh oh
What is becoming of the two of us?
I'm turning time back just to rise above
As if we've never been, no, never been here before
Praying on a better ending or just something
So we'll stop pretending
As if we've never been, never been here before
Oh oh oh
Oh, I could take you in
Or I could pull you under
I wanna take you in
But l may pull you under
Oh, darling I could take you in
But I may pull you under
Oh, darling l could take you in
But I don't wanna pull you under
Oh, what is becoming of the two of us?
I'm turning time back just to rise above
Oh, as if we've never been, no, never been here before
Praying on a better ending or just something
So we'll stop pretending
As if we've never been, never been here before
Oh oh oh
