autumn - jonathan byrd lyrics

[verse 1]
autumn was a fatal time
autumn was a friend of mine
autumn was my last hope
to hold out ’til christmas time
autumn with her bright red hair
autumn with her icy stare
turned her back on the evening news
in a way that said she didn’t care

[chorus]
take the greyhound
take it out of town
take it down the highway
where you might have turned around
dig your fingernails into the naugahyde
let the countryside
slide into another time
another town, another season

[verse 2]
autumn lit a cigarette
said it’s not the timе to quit
ashes on the bed sheets
rеmote control and the tv set
autumn l!cked the envelope
and said it was our only hope
the dim light slowly fading down
to the glow of the marlboro
[chorus]
take the greyhound
take it out of town
take it down the highway
where you might have turned around
dig your fingernails into the naugahyde
let the countryside
slide into another time
another town, another season

[verse 3]
autumn was a clean white sheet
covering all but the feet
static on the radio
the ice bucket in the road
here’s to what i thought was best
here’s to your last request
here’s to how creation
evolved into a holy mess
