all the leaves are turning & the fields are clear there's a fire burning i wish you were here pretty one more time pretty one more time before we're down the line pretty one more time & the light is raining from a midwest sky i'm all through explaining goodbye to goodbye it's getting dark so early i walked all afternoon all i see so clearly will be gone so soon & a dim light beckons from a roadside bar i'll stop in i reckon i have already come this far find a place by the window i've been here before babe don't be a no-show come on through that door i'll write you a letter i know you feel the fall things may not get better but we can always stall
