Lyrics
Woke up today; no sign of you. Now here lay the one where once lay the two. Diamonds danced with waves in your eyes, but things come and go, so it's no surprise.
How summer days can drift away when dark of night steals from day. Birds singing lullabies now flying south with silent goodbyes.
Release me. What am I doing to me? You cam along and left me alone with November Eyes.
Floating along; balloons in the sky burst like a dream I don't think was mine. All the words I hoped you would say; hanging on to just one more day.
Release me. What am I doing to me? You came along and left me alone with November Eyes.
Was I sleeping (hello November). Were we dreaming at all? (do you remember?) Sun may still be shining (so cold November). Was it all perfect timing?
Fly with me to Neverland. Don't wanna grow up; don't wanna land. November eyes searching for you. Maybe some day I'll know what to do...
