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 there's dancing left between us
keeps me locked inside my head
Try to tell myself, "It's over"
but I'm hangin' on by a thread
Oh dear love of mine, forgive me
I'm still learning how to shape the frost

Writting thеse letters from thе fall
Like a goodbye kiss that never leaves at all
And this cold weather won't be long
But it feels like forever
'cause waiting for you to come home
Writting 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 draggin' slower
it seems like we're losin' time
But this pain it's been on memories
from that summer in Tupelo
I still dream about our future
and breakin' off this broken road"

Writting these letters from the fall
Like a goodbye kiss that never leaves at all
And this cold weather won't be long
But it feels like forever
'cause waiting for you to come home
Writting these letters from the fall

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"
