Autumn
Girl, we've known each other for so long
And I know that you
You may think that I don't know how you are, girl

The closer I get to you
You push me away, yes, you do
But it's nothing new, baby, yeah, yeah
The closer you get to me
I just slow my pace
'Cause I know with you
Change in on its way, hey, hey

In winter, you're so cold, baby
But in springtime your love rains on me
And in summer, you're so hot, baby
But in autumn, you always change, baby

Girl, I can sense your hesitation
The more you open your heart to me
I can tell when the season's changing
And I know what's going down
When the leaves turn from green to brown
And the warm days that we used to share
Are as cold as the winter now, oh, oh, oh

The closer I get to you
I feel so, so afraid, girl
To invest my time in you
When I'm not sure what you're tryin' to do, baby, no
The closer you get to me
You change your attitude
But if it were up to me
You'd always be like the 21st of June
In winter, you're so cold, baby
But in springtime your love rains on me
And in summer, you're so hot, baby
But in autumn, you always change
