October Song Lyrics

	I'll sing you this October song
	Oh, there is no song before it
	The words and tune are none of my own
	For my joys and sorrows bore it
	Beside the sea
	The brambly briers in the still of evening
	Birds fly out behind the sun
	And with them I'll leaving
	The fallen leaves that jewel the ground
	They know the art of dying
	And leave with joy their glad gold hearts
	In the scarlet shadows lying
	When hunger calls my footsteps home
	The morning follows after
	I swim the seas within my mind
	And the pine-trees laugh green laughter
	I used to search for happiness
	And I used to follow pleasure
	But I found a door behind my mind
	And that's the greatest treasure
	For rulers like to lay down laws
	And rebels like to break them
	And the poor priests like to walk in chains
	And God likes to forsake them
	I met a man whose name was Time
	And he said, "I must be goin'â€
	But just how long ago that was
	I have no way of knowing
	Sometimes I want to murder time
	Sometimes when my heart's aching
	But mostly I just stroll along
	The path that he is taking

	I' ll sing you this October song
	Oh, there is no song before it
	The words and tune are none of my own
	For my joys and sorrows bore it
	Beside the sea
	The brambly briers in the still of evening
	Birds fly out behind the sun
	And with them I' ll leaving
	The fallen leaves that jewel the ground
	They know the art of dying
	And leave with joy their glad gold hearts
	In the scarlet shadows lying
	When hunger calls my footsteps home
	The morning follows after
	I swim the seas within my mind
	And the pinetrees laugh green laughter
	I used to search for happiness
	And I used to follow pleasure
	But I found a door behind my mind
	And that' s the greatest treasure
	For rulers like to lay down laws
	And rebels like to break them
	And the poor priests like to walk in chains
	And God likes to forsake them
	I met a man whose name was Time
	And he said, " I must be goin'
	But just how long ago that was
	I have no way of knowing
	Sometimes I want to murder time
	Sometimes when my heart' s aching
	But mostly I just stroll along
	The path that he is taking

	I' ll sing you this October song
	Oh, there is no song before it
	The words and tune are none of my own
	For my joys and sorrows bore it
	Beside the sea
	The brambly briers in the still of evening
	Birds fly out behind the sun
