Autumn Air

These are the bad times, what happened to the good times
What happened to the sunset that you said would rise again
What happened to the promises we made to try again
I guess we had our fingers crossed

Its hard to let a good girl go
But baby it would be foolish for me to think that this situation
Is something that I could control
I know I cheated
Woman I know, I see it in your eyes I could read 'em
And they readin' like the epilogue after the Last Chapter
But you couldn't find the right way to say it like bad grammar
Arguing over dishes, laundry and other business
Ballin over those tissues, we glossin' over the issue baby
Thought I could be what you needed when you said you forgave me
Give you that picket fence, the ring, the kids, the Mercedes
Thats what you wanted ain't it, stop walkin now face me
We not talkin its crazy, don't ignore me I hate it
At least if your angry at me I know you still care
Why am I reaching for something as if its still there
I wasn't faithful but how long should I be paying for it
Forgiveness is on the menu and I be waiting on it

(Chorus)
No more Sunshine, No more summer breeze
Before the cold, the Autumn is when she leaves (its when she leaves, its when she leaves)
When she leaves, we inevitably fall (and we just fall, we just fall, the memories are gone)
That Autumn Air makes her love me no more, she loves me no more

Look, is it easier just to walk away and demonize me
Honey you see my eyes, the reason we keep alive is written on my face
Remember college, second semester finals
Quizzing each other while we stripping each other for hours
Freshman year was ours
We were each others sugar but somewhere it went sour
It broke my heart that you thought it was something that you did
You weren't good enough, baby that's just stupid
I don't know maybe it was the pressure
Maybe I couldn't meet the expectations of your sister
Mother, uncles, and aunts asking when we getting married
Maybe I never felt I was good enough for your daddy
Barely making good salary, how could we make a family
Then reality sunk in, then the doubt in me snuck in
Then that led to the night of me going out when I'm drunken
Something was grindin on me then I don't remember nothing

(Chorus)
No more Sunshine, No more summer breeze
Before the cold, the Autumn is when she leaves (its when she leaves, its when she leaves)
When she leaves, we inevitably fall (and we just fall, we just fall, the memories are gone)
That Autumn Air makes her love me no more, she loves me no more

I can't believe I let a good girl go
But once a good girl goes, she's gone forever
Picture perfect we were drawn together
Somehow, even though I saw the signs we were lost together
But lets be honest you never really forgave me
But I understand baby the jealousy made you crazy
And then you just shut off, I couldn't find the on button
I tried everything, I nearly lost my mind from it
Man, you don't shit like that, you don't forgive me for my sins
And take that shit right back
You don't give me another chance as if this shit might last
8 years behind us and we end just like that
Damn, and now the winters so cold
I wander like the man that could never go home
Living in the memories of something we had
Baby tell me, will the summer ever be back

(Chorus)
No more Sunshine, No more summer breeze
Before the cold, the Autumn is when she leaves (its when she leaves, its when she leaves)
When she leaves, we inevitably fall (and we just fall, we just fall, the memories are gone)
That Autumn Air makes her love me no more, she loves me no more
