October

A trick of the light, a turn of the tide

A rift in a valley, full moon in July

Red summer sun mourning, a cold April sky,

That lonely October, so cruel to deny.

A Wish for a fountain lost in the wind

A kick from a new life about to begin

A south facing island that floods in the spring

Will call to October new life, it will bring

It will bring, it will bring

It will bring.

A drop in the ocean short of the line

Cursing a feeling caught up by the night

Repairing the ruin reducing the sting

That falling October will bring

Hope that is dreaming, love that is torn

Dancing like dust in the eye of the storm

Truth will be lost when the mocking bird dies

October returns with its cold winter skies

Awe can't be touched, faith can be blind

Fooled by a past that the world left behind

Hidden in rocks that are lost to the shore

Of silent October we choose to ignore
