From The Fall Lyrics by Bailey Zimmerman
She said, “Boy, won’t you come over?”
“I still miss you all the time”
It’s a bittersweet October
And I’m headed for the Northern pines
Well, this autumn fall feels empty
Black and white leaves touch the ground
You’re the only color I’ve got left
And it’s slowly fading out
All this distance left between us
Keeps me locked inside my head
Tried to tell myself it’s over
But I’m hanging on by a thread
Oh, dear love of mine, forgive me
I’m still learning how to shake the frost
Writing these letters from the fall
Like a goodbye kiss that never leaves at all
And this colder weather won’t be long
But it feels like forever, just waiting for you to come home
Writing these letters from the fall
I said, “Girl, won’t you believe me?”
“You’re the only one that’s mine”
As the days keep dragging slower
It seems like we’re losing time
But this pen, it spills our memories
From that summer in Tupelo
I still dream about our future
And breaking off this broken road
Writing these letters from the fall
Like a goodbye kiss that never leaves at all
And this colder weather won’t be long
But it feels like forever, just waiting for you to come home
Writing these letters from the fall
And she said, “Boy, won’t you come over?”
“I still miss you all the time”
I said, “Girl, won’t you believe me?”
“I’m headed for the Northern pines”
