And when October goes, the snow begins to fly
Above the smokey roofs, I watch the planes go by
The children running home beneath a twilight sky
Oh, for the fun of them, when I was one of them
And when October goes, the same old dream appears
And you are in my arms to share the happy years
I turn my head away to hide the helpless tears
Oh how I hate to see October go
Above the smokey roofs, I watch the planes go by
And when October goes, the same old dream appears
And you are in my arms to share the happy years
I turn my head away to hide the helpless tears
Oh how I hate to see October go
I should be over it now, I know
It doesn't matter much how old I grow
I hate to see October go
