It's the middle of October, all the leaves have changed and you thought you did too
But just like the season it's anything but permanent
So when those thoughts come fluttering you rake them up in a pile and then jump right in
But remember the seasons; nothing is permanent
When you're living in the city
Being crushed by the weight of the buildings that hurt your neck
You put your trust in me
I can help you now, though I couldn't help you then
Who's gonna call you, who's gonna make it right, who's gonna be there listen listen
When you cried in my car I didn't know what to do
I was young and you were too
So who's gonna call you, who's gonna make it right, who's gonna be there listen listen
Trust in me, I can help you now, though I couldn't help you then
You bundle up against the weather, take out your favourite clothes
But there's a draft in your mind and the wind get's right inside
So close the windows, bring the shutters in
Block out that storm and all the pointless suffering
Bundle up against the weather
Till you're right inside
And you're still living in the city
Being crushed by the weight of the buildings that hurt your neck
You put your trust in me
I can help you now, though I couldn't help you then
Who's gonna call you, who's gonna make it right, who's gonna be there listen listen
When you cried in my car I didn't know what to do
I was young and you were too
So who's gonna call you, who's gonna make it right, who's gonna be there listen listen
Trust in me, I can help you now, though I couldn't help you then
It's funny how it seems to go
You forget but your mind remembers
And now another year's gone by
Let alone the month of September
Raking up the leaves picking up the pieces
Raking up the leaves just to jump right in again
Raking up the leaves picking up the pieces
Raking up the leaves just to jump right in again
And again
But it's not the same
Who's gonna call you, who's gonna make it right, who's gonna be there listen listen
When you cried in my car I didn't know what to do
I was young and you were too
So who's gonna call you, who's gonna make it right, who's gonna be there listen listen
Trust in me, I can help you now, though I couldn't help you then
Who's gonna call you, who's gonna make it right, who's gonna be there listen listen
When you cried in my car I didn't know what to do
I was young and you were too
So who's gonna call you, who's gonna make it right, who's gonna be there listen listen
Trust in me, I can help you now, though I couldn't help you then
