"October's Song" lyrics

Mother step to the light that's before you
Mother change in the seasons I see

Winter's on the rise
Autumn still in my eyes
Reborn as daylight dies
The night of the longest goodbyes
New life is passing us by

How do we get down the mountain we climb day-by-day?
What do we do when the light that we shine fades away, fades away?

Father saving our places in time
Passing into the sublime
Oh oh father

Life has gone to sleep
Strength through your memory
Silent and so serene
I'm scared of what cannot be seen
But I'll see you again in-between

How do we get down the mountain we climb day-by-day?
What do we do when the light that we shine fades away?
We leave the prayers and confessions behind day-by-day
Waiting on fate to bring something divine and be saved, and be saved

How do we get down the mountains we climb day-by-day?
What do we do when the light that we shine fades away?
We leave the prayers and confessions behind day-by-day
Waiting on fate to bring something divine and be saved, and be saved

Day-by-day you get by
Day-by-day you get by
Day-by-day you get by
Day-by-day you get by
