Lyrics

Autumn afternoon sky, a breeze!
Each blade of grass comes alive with the light you shine,
But all around, all around I see signs of seasons changing.
That's the way my love goes,
Like a storybook that has no ending.
Somehow she always knows about me.

California was calling me away,
Until I saw my reflection in your eyes.
You're young enough, young enough not to know my situation.
That's the way my love goes.
Gentle kisses in a field of clover.
Somehow she always knows about me.

Scrolling through the photos of my life I see you.
Right before my eyes, there's a vision of an angel.
I know you're not without your faults,
But I think you've got everything I need.
That's the way my love goes.
Moonlight dancing in a shadowed doorway.
Somehow she always knows about me.

You can change my direction with a word.
Your inspiration puts magic in my song!
But all around, all around I see signs of seasons changing.
That's the way my love goes.
Leaves are falling to the ground in silence.
Somehow she always knows about me.
About Me. About Me.
She knows about me. About me. About me.
