[Verse 1]
It did glide in like a sunbeam
On a Thursday afternoon
So I nursed it like a sick kid
It just looked so much like you

[Verse 2]
Feel the stiff light, wish it goodbye
Like a passing tractor beam
Deep October, she's a dear old friend
And a tightly woven seam

[Verse 3]
Between the daylight
And the sharp night of the heavy hearkening
It's there I greet you as a lonely child
Whispering, “This one's on me”

[Verse 4]
We grew up there, in the thin air
Of the heavy slated sky
Endless winter, we could nurse her
We could cure her if we tried

[Verse 5]
Are you listening? Have you fooled me?
Memories like an elegy
Why is something trying to push me
To admit this one's on me?

[Verse 6]
Is my silence just a violent thing?
Do I house a crooked mind?
Happy people, try to be like them
Robed in mystery and kindness

[Verse 7]
Skim the surface
Let yourself sink back to innocent belief
It's there you'll find me, I'll be smiling
My old friend, this one's on me
