October Album Version by gray (US) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It’s in smiles
A lover’s eyes
It’s in joy when it needs no disguise
It’s in fairy tales and lullabies
And stories that hold true
It’s in hugs
Apple pies
It’s in love that grows old and never dies
These things make me glad to be alive
[Chorus]
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
When death comes, my heart is overcome
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
But when death comes, I start looking up
[Verse 2]
Little legs that sit upon a shoulder
It’s in blonde curls that won’t be there when she’s older
It’s in raising up what was raised in us
Spending Sunday in a pew
It’s in love
Love overcomes it all
It’s in memories of back when we were small
Falling leaves and clear blue skies
And all the things we’ve made it through
[Chorus]
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
When death comes, my heart is overcome
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
When death comes, I start looking up
[Bridge]
When death comes, it hurts
And I'm not saying it's good to die
When death comes, it feels so undeserved
And I'm not saying it's wrong to cry
Got to speak, speak the truth
This world could use a lot less strife
Got to say, say this too
There's a meaning to this movie screen life
[Chorus]
Though I’ll never be able to treasure life enough
But when death comes, I try to find a life that will last
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
When death comes, I start looking up
Life is going so fast
Life is going so fast, mmm
[Outro]
Dear heart, stay sober
'Cause it is only October
Octobers end and tired hearts mend
It’s in smiles
A lover’s eyes
It’s in joy when it needs no disguise
It’s in fairy tales and lullabies
And stories that hold true
It’s in hugs
Apple pies
It’s in love that grows old and never dies
These things make me glad to be alive
[Chorus]
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
When death comes, my heart is overcome
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
But when death comes, I start looking up
[Verse 2]
Little legs that sit upon a shoulder
It’s in blonde curls that won’t be there when she’s older
It’s in raising up what was raised in us
Spending Sunday in a pew
It’s in love
Love overcomes it all
It’s in memories of back when we were small
Falling leaves and clear blue skies
And all the things we’ve made it through
[Chorus]
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
When death comes, my heart is overcome
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
When death comes, I start looking up
[Bridge]
When death comes, it hurts
And I'm not saying it's good to die
When death comes, it feels so undeserved
And I'm not saying it's wrong to cry
Got to speak, speak the truth
This world could use a lot less strife
Got to say, say this too
There's a meaning to this movie screen life
[Chorus]
Though I’ll never be able to treasure life enough
But when death comes, I try to find a life that will last
We’ll never be able to treasure life enough
When death comes, I start looking up
Life is going so fast
Life is going so fast, mmm
[Outro]
Dear heart, stay sober
'Cause it is only October
Octobers end and tired hearts mend
