Ive been waiting, pacing along the halls ever since you left here
Ive been cleaning, scrubbing the plates and weeding out the garden dear
I cant fall asleep to your mystery slowly blowing from the shore
I have not failed to be what youd expect of me
Swallowing glass just to stay pure
All the birds are heading down south but youre staying up north you say
Ive got jackets, blankets and sheets its going to be a cold October
It could be warm you see, a statue next to me swimming away from ice and snow
Could i have failed to see the signs in front of me
Warning and flashing symbols, subtle and simple i couldnt see
I couldnt see
If only time could slow down, maybe i could come up
Its such a cold October
Its such a cold October its so cold
I cant fall asleep to your mystery slowly blowing from the shore
I have not failed to be what youd expect of me
Swallowing glass just to stay pure
Summers come and summer has gone your christmas cards cant comfort me
Youve found new friends and tied all the ends
Its freezing in the loneliest winter
It could be warm youd see, a statue next to me
Swimming away from ice and snow
Could i have failed to see the signs in front of me
Warning and flashing symbols, subtle and
Simple i couldnt see
I couldnt see
If only time could slow down then maybe i could come up
Its such a cold October
Its such a cold October its so cold
