Autumn Song - Dorothy Carter

Summer time is gone I miss it so much My board lies in my garage Waiting for the snowy season And again I would slide Friends are alright There's nothing so sad And the foods are good today It looks like things are going right But I feel I'm all alone Tell me how can I be such a stupid shit No way, I can't even find my way home You said today is not the same as yesterday One thing I miss at the center of my heart It's such a fine day And all the nice girls I don't need anymore Coffee is ready I light my cigarette Guess what it's all about I wonder where I put the letter you wrote me That's all I'm concerned about We can party around the clock But I feel I'm all alone Tell me how can I be such a stupid shit No way, I can't even find my way home You said today is not the same as yesterday One thing I miss at the center of my heart Summer time is gone I miss it so much My board lies in my garage Waiting for the snowy season And again I would slide I wonder where I put the letter you wrote me That's all I'm concerned about We can party around the clock But I feel I'm all alone Tell me how can I be such a stupid shit No way, I can't even find my way home You said today is not the same as yesterday One thing I miss at the center of my heart

Leaves of brown they fall to the ground And it's here, over there leaves around Shut the door, dim the lights and relax What is more, your desire or the facts Pitter patter the rain falling down Little glamor sun coming round Take a walk when autumn comes to town Little stroll past the house on the hill Some more coal on the fire will do well And in a week or two it'll be Halloween Set the page and the stage for the scene A little game the children will play And as we watch them while time away Look at me and take my breath away, yeah You'll be smiling- eyes beguilding And the song on the breeze Will call my name out and your dream Chestnuts roasting outside as you walk With your love by your side The old accordion man plays mellow and bright And you go home in the crispness of the night Little later friends will be along And if you feel like joining the throng Just might feel like singing Autumn song Just may feel like singing Autumn song You'll be smiling Eyes beguilding And the song on the breeze Calls my name out in your dream Chestnuts roasting outside As you walk with your love by your side And the old accordion plays mellow and bright And you go home in the crispness of the night Little later friends will be along And if you feel like joining the throng Just might feel like singing Autumn song Autumn song

These autumn beasts crouch in a hush Each to each Their long golden fur radiant in the sunset Unmoving, like statues set in place Set in the place The beasts lower their heads Laying their one white horn to earth And close their eyes When finally the sun is gone and the gloom of night draws over them The beasts lower their heads Laying their one white horn to earth And close their eyes

There was a time I was runnin' through hell Never thought I'd make it out alive Don't understand how I cheated death But I made it to the other side Oh, why love a girl like me? Oh, why love a boy like you? Oh, yeah I know the ups and downs are strange I know the ups and downs are strange You are more than enough, don't change You are more than enough Don't let the demons get you down You'll be where nothing can break you When love is on your side, it's a beautiful life There was a time I was willin' to die I stopped believin' in myself Heaven said that it wasn't my time We found a way for you to help Ahhha, save a boy like me Ahhha, save a girl like you Oh, yeah I know the ups and downs are strange I know the ups and downs are strange You are more than enough, don't change You are more than enough Don't let the demons get you down You'll be where nothing can break you When love is on your side, it's a beautiful life Whoa, whoa, yeah, ah Ah, yeah Whoa, whoa, yeah Ah, yeah I know the ups and downs are strange I know the ups and downs are strange You are more than enough, don't change You are more than enough Don't let the demons get you down Down, oh, yeah You'll be where nothing can break you When love is on your side When love is on your side, it's a beautiful life It's a beautiful life

I search through my heart in a sky full of eyes Leap in and dance with the blind Feels like my hands have been forced, tied, pried Can't go nowhere but behind Look at the streets People is losing their lives People is losing their mind Go cop a gun, cop a plea, cop a room at the nine Look up and shoot at the sky I should be used to this life Who am I? Useless And why should I even just try? I'm tryna break out the coupe Lead a flock with the roof, yea And go somewhere new in my mind I just keep shooting and dying Shooting and trying Double, I'm true to design I think there's gotta be something I ain't even seen Man, I ain't just no proof of the times Take me back to the West coast Where the sun shines all day Weaving through the heart of Los Angeles To the San Francisco bay Take me down to the south land Oh I need that humid air I put two feet through the old church door Holy water run through my hair Freedom, got freedom on my mind, yes I do Freedom, I got freedom on my mind On my mind, on my mind, on my mind Yeah you can still be who you wanna be That's your difference, you got vision Even though some things go wrong, you still so driven More transmission Just be riding fast on that jungle pass Those thundercats and your hundred (?) This wonderland, long as you go the distance No provisions Take me back to the West coast Catch the sun before it sets I drink a 40 in the middle of your headlights Run your fingers down my legs My heart's forever open It doesn't matter where I go I got my roots deep in California But the road got into my bones On my, on my mind, got into my bones I said on my, on my mind, got into my bones Freedom, got freedom on my mind, yes I do Freedom, I got freedom on my mind On my mind, on my mind, on my mind Okay, now everybody's gotta love somebody Looking in the mirror like "what on earth you want from me?" Looking in your eyes like I know you got love for me I just wanna please it I just wanna stop running keep from the basement Now look it's all stars, such a sensation Out of the ball park, so many haters I guess it's my fault, I just be playin Baby I ball hard, what is you sayin Keep looking for freedom Looking for God when you don't even see him Keep looking for stars, you be home when you reach him Watch out for the snakes in the thoughts and your demons Some people are leeches Some people believe it Sometimes it's just you and nobody believe it Sometimes it get hard to keep going, keep breathing But you gotta make it, you gotta make it You got a purpose, destined for greatness I just keep thriving, you just keep chasing We wanna treasure, we wanna taste it Guess you create it so this what you made it, huh Freedom, got freedom on my mind, yes I do Freedom, woah, I got freedom on my mind, on my mind, on my mind Freedom

Why did love put a gun in my hand? Why did love put a gun in my hand? Why did love put a gun in my hand? In my bed, in my head, in my hand Was it for redemption? Was it for revenge? Was it for the bottle? Was it for the ledge? Was it for the thrill of pushing my hope to the edge? Why did love, why did love put a gun in my hand? Why did love, why did love put a gun in my hand? Why did love put a knife in my heart? Why did love open up my scars? Why did love put a knife in my heart? In my bed, in my head, in my heart Was it for redemption? Was it for revenge? Was it for the bottle? Was it for the ledge? Was it for the thrill of pushing my hope to the edge? Why did love, why did love put a gun in my hand? Why did love, why did love, why did love Put a gun in my hand (why did love, why did love, why did love) Put a gun in my hand (why did love, why did love) Why did love put a gun in my hand? Woah, in my hand Oh, was it for redemption? Was it for revenge? Was it for the bottle? Was it for the ledge? For the thrill of pushing my hope to the edge? Why did love, why did love put a gun in my hand? Ooh, in my hand Why did love, why did love put a gun in my hand?
