Nanci Griffith - October Reasons lyrics

I'm gonna open up the window and let in October And roll up my sleeves in the rain Roll out on the freeway with a heart a little harder Breezes gettin' cooler by the day 5 a.m. travelers, bleary eyed and lonely We're all countin' miles and tradin' lanes But if I stopped to call you What would I say? Hell, I know I'd feel the same I can open up the window and let in October Roll up my sleeves in the rain Gonna tie up the pieces and sleep out in the country Where the phone don't ring my dues to pay And the echoes of your city No longer call my name I said I wasn't happy anyway The ghosts in the closet You need to drive away Ain't gonna take this pride I've saved I can open the window and let in October And roll up my sleeves in the rain Ain't it gonna be hard when you realize You're still the same old fool inside I ain't gonna let your blues take the prize So honey open up the window and let in October You may never love quite the same And it's yesterday's mornin's Lord they'll always remain
