Lyrics
🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
Well her old friend, from her own end of town dropped by today,And way down deep inside me something diedWhen he came ’round to see her that way.Here it comes again, that same old chilly windWill blow like a cold winter squall.And I’ll begin to feel the chill of an early fall.And I’ll be drinking again and thinking whenever he calls,There’s a storm coming on, it won’t be too long till the snow falls.Oh I’ll be sobersome,But when October comes and goes and no time at allI’ll begin to feel the chill of an early fall.Oh how quick they slip away, here today and gone tomorrow.Love and seasons never stay, bitter winds are sure to follow.Now there’s no doubt, it’s gonna be cold out tonight;I’ve shivered all day, and when I look in her eyesNeeding to hold her so tight, she just looks away.Oh she’ll swear that it’s true, he’s just someone she knewLong ago, and I’ll know that’s not all,And I’ll begin to feel the chill of an early fall.Oh I’ll begin to feel the chill of an early fall.
