November

[Verse 1:] She was sittin' on the park bench feedin' pigeons on Beacon Hill I was takin' my dog Jack out for a run, we had little time to kill I still don't know if it was Jack or me that somehow caught her eye But the next thing I knew, we were sittin' there talking, laughing, into the night And from that moment on she never left my side Those autumn nights were long She was the first love of my life [Chorus:] I still can feel the softness of her hair falling on my face My arms all around her There's always something 'bout this time of year It takes me to that place And I remember November [Verse 2:] She was workin' her way through school Waitin' tables at the Hungry Eye I was playin' a club down on the waterfront After work she'd come by Around 3AM we'd grab some take-out in the heart of Chinatown Then we'd hang out and stay up all night just talkin' and messin' around I never would have dreamed we'd ever say goodbye She felt like the sun to me on those cold November nights [Chorus] [Bridge:] Lookin' back I can't explain what happened On that dark December day I guess we were just two kids goin' different ways [Chorus] [Outro:] And I remember November
