Only Autumn by Elliott Lyrics
[Pre-Chorus]
The way it feels before a storm
Lightning strikes to keep my hands warm
To keep me warm
[Chorus 1
Close enough to see, but too far to touch
The winds at my feet are in a rush
Knocking me over
Straight to the ground
Won’t you let me go?
If you’re gonna let me down
[Verse 1]
You said “it’s only autumn”
I said “it’s way too cold”
At least winter is honest
‘cause these lies are growing so old
As I started to shiver and it crawled down my spine
I took off my coat and the temperature started to climb
[Pre-Chorus]
Like the way it feels before a storm
Lightning strikes to keep me warm
To keep me oooh oohh ohh
[Verse 2]
I know you think I’ve forgotten
What you said that afternoon
But your words are anything but gone
Consider them tattooed
All along my ribcage
Ink the colors in your eyes
I said “it’s nice to have met you, but I fell for your disguise”
[Pre-Chorus]
You are the way it feels before the storm
Your lightning strikes to keep my hands warm
To keep me warm
[Chorus 2]
You’re close enough to see
But too far to touch
The winds at my feet are in a rush
Knocking me over
Straight to the ground
Would you call it lost if I don’t want to be found?
The way it feels before a storm
Lightning strikes to keep my hands warm
To keep me warm
[Chorus 1
Close enough to see, but too far to touch
The winds at my feet are in a rush
Knocking me over
Straight to the ground
Won’t you let me go?
If you’re gonna let me down
[Verse 1]
You said “it’s only autumn”
I said “it’s way too cold”
At least winter is honest
‘cause these lies are growing so old
As I started to shiver and it crawled down my spine
I took off my coat and the temperature started to climb
[Pre-Chorus]
Like the way it feels before a storm
Lightning strikes to keep me warm
To keep me oooh oohh ohh
[Verse 2]
I know you think I’ve forgotten
What you said that afternoon
But your words are anything but gone
Consider them tattooed
All along my ribcage
Ink the colors in your eyes
I said “it’s nice to have met you, but I fell for your disguise”
[Pre-Chorus]
You are the way it feels before the storm
Your lightning strikes to keep my hands warm
To keep me warm
[Chorus 2]
You’re close enough to see
But too far to touch
The winds at my feet are in a rush
Knocking me over
Straight to the ground
Would you call it lost if I don’t want to be found?
