Autumn Dress
[Verse 1]
Lay on the desert floor
We are vultures picking scraps
You, you might not make that first swing
But I know you'll connect soon
It gets hard for you, I see it in your face from time to time
It's on the tip of my tongue
This ain't the place that you know
Don't have that river you love
Or the sun beating down
But even the darkest scene looks beautiful to me no matter what

[Chorus]
And if it's right in front of you
Then why don't you see it?
Why don't you see it
Yeah, I remember you
Lovely in your autumn dress, yeah

[Verse 2]
Lay on our bedroom floor
Let's give a little this time
If life is unforgiving, I'll give you peace of mind
I have been there before
Obsession creates problems of its own
When the embers burn cold, you look but you don't care
And there's no distance, I will always meet you anywhere
I am tougher than you know
I want what I've got and that is all
[Chorus]
And if it's right in front of you
Then why don't you see it?
Why don't you see it?
Yeah, I remember you
Lovely in your autumn dress
In your autumn dress

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 3]
Lay on the desert floor
You can settle in your scars
If you give anything a push, then
Then it is ours
I know you're like a child at heart
You're a match, you're thunder in the dark

[Chorus]
And if it's right in front of you
Then why don't you see it?
Why don't you see it?
And oh, yeah, I remember you
Lovely in your autumn dress
In your autumn dress
