October Sky

I’d give it all
A plea for life
For one more sight
An October sky
I felt the winds change
I watched the sun set
And all the trees go from green to lifeless
And in the blink
Of an eye
I saw my world die
I stand to make sure
Your memory remains
And in song I write to keep you alive

It’s like ten-thousand knives laying waste
to my heart
And in the lessons I learned from you
You were everything I am not
In morning walks
Til night time falls
So with this love I hope to repay you
And in song I’ll keep you alive

I hear the chorus of the wind, it says you live

October sky

I’d give it all
A plea for life
For one more sight
An October sky
I felt the winds change
I watched the sun set
And all the trees go from green to lifeless
And in the blink
Of an eye
I saw my world die
I stand to make sure
Your memory remains
And in song I write to keep you alive

I will never let your death be in vain
I will never let you walk away

A rose in time’s unforgiving crawl
Searching for your face
In its petal’s endless fall
That sun still flaunts a dying light in the same October sky
