Autumn (Act 5) - Josh Abbott Band

She can turn a rose to breathe

Even with the weight of the world on her back

For as much as she believes

Praying God oh won't you please cut me some slack

And there's a time for new beginnings

There's a time for the end

I'm not sure what direction she's finally moving in

By tomorrow she'll be leaving

She can't take it here no more

She's never cared much for November

And she will not be annoyed

In search of a beholder

She's beautiful despite her flaws

Turning a new leaf over

Autumn's changing to fall

Going through the motions

When everything that's left inside her heart

Promises lie broken

As she tosses and turns and tears herself apart

In search of warmer weather

In search of sun and shade

Lord nothing lasts forever

And seasons always change

By tomorrow she'll be leaving

She can't take it here no more

She's never cared much for November

And she will not be annoyed

In search of a beholder

She's beautiful despite her flaws

Turning a new leaf over

Autumn's changing to fall

If she makes it through the winter

She'll find herself a man

And there's nothing to consider

She ain't coming back again

By tomorrow she'll be leaving

She can't take it here no more

She's never cared much for November

And she will not be annoyed

In search of a beholder

She's beautiful despite her flaws

Turning a new leaf over

Autumn's changing to fall

Turning a new leaf over

Autumn's changing into fall
