[Verse 1]
Westbound drive in the Santa Ana winds
Baby's gonna drive me down to the airport again
Watchin' junebugs die, turn off the waterslides
Don't leave my side, leave my side

[Verse 2]
When the frost comes down in the morning dew
You know I'm gonna paint myself in a corner with you
You can tie me down like a quiet side
Don't leave my side, leave my side

[Chorus]
I was waiting so long to be alone with you
In an autumn love, oh-ooh
In an autumn love, oh-ooh
In an autumn love

[Verse 3]
Charlottesville and the leaves have changed
I leaned in, told the brightest one your name
Said she lives inside the October light
Don't leave my side, leave my side

[Chorus]
But I was waiting so long to be alone with you
In an autumn love, oh-ooh
In an autumn love, oh-ooh
In an autumn love
In an autumn love
[Outro]
It's a feeling I get
That we're not done yet
But we could stay here for a while

[Instrumental]
