Lyrics

By dean friedman

Autumn seems awful lonely here whenever we think of you
Last night the sky turned purple and we wanted to share the view
Leaves on the trees are turning and the woods are all ablaze
They smell of timber burning in the fireplace

Sunday we woke up early and we drove out to tice's farms
Gorging ourselves on all the cider and doughnuts we could fit under both our arms
Picking out penny candy in the country store
Till we collapsed on the porch with our bellies sore

So what's it like to be on your own, a roaming vagabond, away from home
In search of some forgotten door?
Is it half as good as it sounds? tell me, have you really found
The peace and calm we've all been looking for?

Freckles still misses you. she always sleeps on the floor in your room
Ruth says she smells, but you know it's just her very unique perfume
The tree in the back bore apples but they're green and full of worms
Guess we'll sit tight and wait until the cider turns

Everyone sends their love; they still don't really believe you're gone
Everyone's jealous of this crazy odyssey that you're on
Hoping this finds you happy and healthy and sane
I pray that your strength will ease you through the growing pains

So what's it like to be on your own, a roaming vagabond, away from home
In search of some forgotten door?
Is it half as good as it sounds? tell me, have you really found
The peace and calm we've all been looking for?
