Will this be the last plane ride in your swing?
The harvest moon has come and with her sadness brings
My mom says, "It's too cold to play", so I'm just waiting here
Thinking on our sunny days

But now there's autumn in your eyes
I just wanted a chance to say goodbye
A final burst of summertime
I just wanted a chance to say goodbye

There's nothing quite as hard or easier than time
My world is coming down and no one seems to mind
Where I once played there's no sound

And now there's autumn in your eyes
I just wanted a chance to say goodbye
A sad farewell to summertime
I just wanted a chance to say goodbye

From the north the icy breath is all around me
Blowing and snowing, changing you, oh

Now there's autumn in your eyes
I just wanted a chance to say goodbye
A long farewell to summertime
I just wanted a chance to say goodbye
I just wanted a chance to say goodbye, ooh
