tie the sheets to the green washing line
and check if the weather's fine
it's that time of the calendar year
the cheateau and millenium wine
are the kids washed and t-shirts clean?
like your weekly with men's magazines
october
by noon it's a sure thing that tempers will rise
as the first of the kegs are drained dry
contemplating the last of the roast
"is that your wife that's kissing the under 12's coach?"
the prodigy's job is to drive the kids home
newspaper hats and a hair-frosted comb
october
have you caught up on your neighbours life?
let's drink to the red in the heart of the sky
it's over
it's over
it's overAll alone find a way in your own dream
Looking at you I see the sorrow in your eyes
Here I am been searching for someone
To share my life and dreams
Side by side tenderly fly away with me
Take my hand tell me that your heart is free
Promise me that you'll never go away
You and I we'll build this love together
Forever we'll be as one
Hold me now and touch me now
I'm falling in love with you
*Chorus*
This is the time I wanna say I love you
This is the love I wanna last forever
This is the time to say my love is here to stay
I want forever and ever...you'll be mine
You and I we'll build this love together
Forever we'll be as one
Hold me now and touch me now
I'm falling in love with you
*Chorus* x2
