October歌詞

[00:06.62]On a day just like this on the ocean, four years ago now.
[00:10.49]
[00:13.42]The wind was too strong, the waves were too big, three young men were thrown of the bow
[00:18.95]
[00:21.82]And I was at home when they were fighting towards mother earth
[00:25.77]
[00:28.96]And two of them died only twenty years after their birth
[00:32.57]
[00:34.95]In October, oh
[00:39.70]
[00:41.76]And the last of the three was left hopelessly crying for help
[00:45.51]
[00:48.46]The wind was screaming but the silence was stronger as he stood with his feet in the kelp
[00:54.20]
[00:56.63]The sun was still up, but it was night time when I heard who died
[01:01.37]
[01:03.68]I only knew Eric 'cause one time he gave me a ride
[01:07.49]
[01:09.92]In October, oh
[01:14.16]
[01:16.60]Now, I didn't know him well, but I liked him, he was one of those guys
[01:21.09]
[01:23.28]That everyone knew either liked him or not, 'cause there were no sign of lies in his eyes
[01:29.14]
[01:31.53]I was seventeen years old the last time he spoke to me
[01:35.71]
[01:38.70]Now I'm twenty one and I'm older than he'll ever be
[01:42.07]
[01:44.88]In October, oh
[01:49.56]
[01:51.68]My father is his mothers cousin, so that makes us kin
[01:55.30]
[01:58.42]I remember those family dinners, and the old peoples funerals again and again
[02:03.64]
[02:06.64]So strange looking 'round in the crowd when he wouldn't be found
[02:10.94]
[02:13.50]Oh, the look on the face of his brother when they lowered him down
[02:17.58]
[02:20.08]In October, oh
[02:24.62]
[03:02.00]October is the best, turns roads into beautiful trails
[03:05.20]
[03:08.64]The rime on the windows, the leafs on your coat, the frost on the cars and the rails
[03:14.44]
[03:16.94]Still, out on the ocean, those memories are bringing me down
[03:20.80]
[03:23.99]But I've heard there's a symphony playing you to sleep when you drown
[03:28.17]
[03:30.16]October, again and again
[03:34.27]
[03:36.08]
