November Lyrics

Close my door Close my eyes Press my fingers to the glass Why does November drag its heels when October never seems to last? The television tells us love can make a mute man speak or make a closed man walk outside But time sheds its light on all that I wanted to hide I get off the train I stumble 'round the Square I look for the poems at my feet You and I come home And there we bitch and moan 'bout all the perfect lovers that we never seem to meet You'd better let someone love you instead of pushing us all away Until time rolls right over all that you wanted to say I know you are hurting I see you tied up in knots over there But these are the days we are given They are precious we must live them I swear This could be the last warm day in a cold and ugly November When it's all over, what are you going to remember? Hey old one up there Where's the snow where are the lighted windows of our passing age? You know you never told us of the bitter cold Trying to find the heart inside each well-built cage Still i forgive you I would not have it any other way I can say it only once more, I love you Stay Stay Stay
