End of October
The sleepy brown woods seem to
Nod down their heads to the Winter
Yellows and grays paint the sad skies today
And I wonder when you're coming home
Woke up one morning
The wind through the window
Reminded me winter was just 'round the bend
Somehow I just did not see it was coming
It took me by surprise again

Hi Cori,
With this new heat I'm ready for winter maybe it will cool off :0)
Hope your week is going well. Now that I feel better and not sick in the head I'll look over those dates :0)

Oh I had forgotten that song. I loved it too. Would crank it up as loud as I could and sing sing sing. I loved that old album.
Hugs
