Leaves turning brown, it's down to fifty-four
The cold is moving into Texas and it's moving out the wall
And these bitter winds are coming soon again
The chapped lips asking for tips, trying to find more love to lend, oh
♪
And family time, moving closer in
Find the time to hear the chimes of a wedding once again
I need it back when I did before
To feel the warmth of a fire and a woman that I adore, oh
Can this all please slow down?

Another year is burning out

But son, don't wait for someone like me
Who's got more wants than needs
♪
So I'll sit still as seasons move on
Oh, I hate to watch them leave, I hate to watch them leave
♪
I see your breath while I'm holding mine
Your face lit up by the moon, my face lit up by your eyes
I'm singing songs, my family sings along
With my feet buried in the gravel, my heart buried in my wrongs, yeah
Can this all please slow down?

Until tomorrow is the past, the future is long gone

Another year is burning out
The sun don't wait for someone like me
Who's got more wants than needs
So I'll sit still as seasons move on
Oh, I hate to watch them leave
Hate to watch them leave
