lyrics

November’s Child

The Autumn leaves are no longer gold
The wind will sigh her name
The only feeling is of getting old
And knowing love’s a bitter game.

The London streets are shabby/cold
As the leaves begin to fall
The clouds tell stories yet to be told
The ghost of your ex-lover calls.

Chorus
November’s child in constant rain will love ever be the same again?
November’s child in the sullen sun are all of your Summers done?
November’s child in constant rain will love ever be the same again?
November’s child in the sullen sun are all of your Summers gone?

Fireworks will torch the skies
As the dark night takes its toll
When she left she never even cried
As her goodbyes seared your soul.

Seas will crash & rivers flow
As women come & women go
They take their leave as they please
But why they leave you’ll never know.

Chorus

(Instrumental)

You loved too long, you loved too well
But love often came to blind you
Some days were heaven, some were hell
As women came to free or bind you.

You’re sadly haunted by your past
A past that’s come to define you
Will your woman somehow be your last?
And love always defile you?

Chorus.
