When October Goes

And when October goes The snow begins to fly Above the smoky roofs I watch the planes go by The children running home beneath A twilight sky Oh, for the fun of them When I was one of them And when October goes The same old dream appears And you are in my arms To share the happy years I turn my head away to hide The helpless tears Oh, how I hate to see October go And when October goes The same old dream appears And you are in my arms To share the happy years I turn my head away to hide The helpless tears Oh, how I hate to see October go I should be over it now, I know It doesn't matter much how old I grow I hate to see October go --- When October Goes - Barry Manilow
