Autumn & Me (Artist Choice Version)

歌詞

We were 17 and on our own When we hit the gas for the great unknown I was named for a boy, she was named for the fall And nothing much else really mattered at all I knew what happened on her kitchen floor And she knew what it meant when I wrote on the door Secrets spilled into that dark And everyone was a piece of my heart It's a lullaby It's a beautiful life And it sings me to sleep most every night So I hold it close And I hide it away That's how I keep it from going astray Love doesn't need a rhyme or a reason to be This is the story of Autumn and me. We grew up fast in a few short years And we littered the path with the tracks of our tears But we carved our names in the proverbial wall And nothing much else really matters at all We earned every line in our 25 years We cried over boys and we laughed over beers I wouldn't trade the girl for a song She lets me know right where I belong It's a lullaby It's a beautiful life And it sings me to sleep most every night So I hold it close And I hide it away That's how I keep it from going astray Love doesn't need a rhyme or a reason to be This is the story of Autumn and me Rooftop dancing in the summer heat New car crash on a one way street Strangers moving up to the fourth floor Strange, now nobody knows me more It's a lullaby It's a beautiful life And it sings me to sleep most every night So I hold it close And I hide it away That's how I keep it from going astray Love doesn't need a rhyme or a reason to be This is the story of Autumn and me.
