Midnight strolls,Warm cheeks, And fuzzy feelings,
It's the horrifyingly electric feeling of October,
Oh! What a feeling to be in love and to be loved,
Look at the glorious trees harvesting the love and the warmth of fall,
The red leaves were for sweethearts,
The orange leaves were for lovers,
The yellow leaves were for crushes,
And the green leaves were for no-one,
Somehow October was my favorite month but I could never move past the orange leaves,
Time after time again- I'd give someone my orange leaves but they'd eventually turn green,
Who cares about the green leaves when they're seen all-year-round?
Just once, I'd love for someone to give me leaves and never take them back,
To love me to edges of the earth,
To think about me as if I were their only thought,
To want me as desperately as fall needed it's leaves,
And to be the person to never make me hold a green leaf again,
But It's the horrifyingly electric feeling of October,
Oh! What a feeling to be in love and to be loved,
