Winds roll in from the north, nights get cold Evening hours seem to start too early every year Oh lonely is the one who can’t Forgive himself Then no one else Can enter through his heart
Cold, cold October night Memories he holds too tight
Water falls from clouds that cannot hold Somewhere down the riverbank runs something she once had Long gone, empty is the one who can’t Forget the past And all she was Moments never last
Cold, cold October rain Nothing ever stays the same
Pictures of a life in paints of gold Evening hours close the last of stories that grew old Oh blessed is the one who knows October nights and never hides From autumn nights alone
Cold, cold October night Memories he holds too tight Cold, cold October rain Nothing ever stays the same
