every autumn i fall

this evening i thought about everything
riding on the streetcar
i watched it all pass me by
and i wondered where you are

and what will this all mean someday
because i don't know what it means right now
and why am i here alone like this?
i need to find a place to be somehow...

every autumn i fall
i don't understand this fear, it must be the time of year
every autumn i fall
everything turns to grey, i wish i had more to say
every autumn i fall

i feel i could walk forever tonight
on these downtown streets and never find my way
home
but i can't go there, not now, not until
i make something happen
because if i wake up, and nothing's changed
i don't think it ever will...

every autumn i fall
everyone's going away, i wish i didn't feel this way
every autumn i fall
everything is dying, and i'm tired of trying
every autumn i fall
