A western wind is blowing in, long gone, those summer days of sin.
Lament the time that passed you by under a cold November sky.
You take the good you take the bad, In the end that's all you had.
Lament the time that passed you by under a cold November sky.
How we burn like brushes in the sun.
What life may give it takes away, it will remove what's here today.
And then the time that passed you by under a cold November sky.
You take the good you take the bad, In the end that's all you had.
Lament the time that passed you by under a cold November sky.
How we burn like brushes in the sun.
Regrets they never did no good, never kept me warm of gave me food.
You cannot change what's come to pass, the dreams that shatter just like glass.
I had a life and I had a home, something to hold and call my own.
But now, now, now, i sleep alone.
What life may give it takes away, it will remove what's here today.
And then the time that passed you by under a cold November sky.
We come from dust, return to dust, and in between, do what we must.
Lament the time that's passed us by, under a cold November sky.
How we burn like brushes in the sun.
Regrets they never did no good, never kept me warm of gave me food.
You cannot change what's come to pass, the dreams that shatter just like glass.
I had a life and I had a home, something to hold and call my own.
But now, now, now, now...
I am the sum of all I've known, this battered husk of broken bones.
For good or bad, I must atone.
I am the earth and I am the trees, the sprawling roots and fallen leaves.
For good or bad, I must atone.
And I sleep alone.
And now the sun is at my back, I move from daylight, to the black.
Lament the time that passed me by, under a cold November sky.
A western wind is moving in, long gone those summer days of sin.
Lament the time that passed us by under a cold November sky.
