And when October goes
The snow begins to fly
Above the smokey roofs

I watch the planes go by
The children running home
Beneath a twilight sky

Oh, for the fun of them
When I was one of them


And when October goes
The same old dream appears
And you are in my arms

To share the happy years
I turn my head away
To hide the helpless tears

Oh how I hate to see October go

And when October goes

The same old dream appears
And you are in my arms
To share the happy years

I turn my head away
To hide the helpless tears
Oh how I hate to see October go

I should be over it now I know
It doesn't matter much
How old I grow

I hate to see October go
