It's been a while since I've been home Last time the sun still held his own against the night And while I slept November came It's hard remembering warmer days I'd rather stay here this time 'round Safe and hidden without a sound Let's go back there, you and I Where the gold sun hits black sky, and we'll go walking in the rain Let's go back there, you and I Where the hills are stretching high towards the sun We'll go walking in the rain When the days don't end the same This year the trees were given no chance To wear their fiery capes and dance Before we had a chance to see Their coats were ripped - not gold, but green - Away, leaving them naked, cold, afraid Let's go back there, you and I Where the gold sun hits black sky, and we'll go walking in the rain Let's go back there, you and I Where the hills are stretching high towards the sun We'll go walking in the rain When the days don't end the same Oh there's something in my mind The thought of leaving you behind To have to wear my face and leave My heart not big enough to heave the farewell sigh to you and home And I'll be going back alone, Come January Come January, Come January Come January
