The keys are under the garden gnome
Do let yourself in
No need to knock
There's nothing here to win
The tea bags
Are in the flower jar
Please don't let the cat
Wander off too far
And remember
The day
And remember
The way
We smiled
Do you remember
Those October nights
The locks and the lights
And all the angry fights
Do you remember the
Ticktocking satellites?
The Moon was always
Your favorite thing
Silver and pock-marked in the sky
Now all I can think of
Are the echoes of grey
In my scribbled on goodbye
My broken pencils
Your broken sighs
We left it all
Inside our mismatched lives
-Under the tables
And on the stairs
We said our prayers
And I remember
The day
And I remember
The way
We cried
Do you remember
Those October nights
The locks and the lights
And all the angry fights
Do you remember the
Ticktocking satellites?
Inside the house
There are stars
Blinking down from the ceiling
And the cars are zooming
Through the rooms
Like abandoned heirlooms
And you remember
The day
And you remember
The way
We lied
Do you remember
Those October nights
The locks and the lights
And all the angry fights
Do you remember the
Ticktocking satellites?
The night is young
You can still catch the last train
To the Moon or to Spain
I won't run after you
I'm stuck in the slow lane
Do you remember
Those October nights
The locks and the lights
And all the angry fights
Do you remember the
Ticktocking satellites?
I won't be coming after you
I'm stuck in the slow queue
