When you feel so tired trying
When you ask and no-one knows
When your heart is tired fighting
When you feel like letting go
Take this love I've freely given
Take this dream I'm wishing for

[Chorus]
How long is forever
If I can't see you anymore
I'll miss you most whenever October winds begin to blow

Well these days have lost their meaning
And these nights can feel so cold
Endless days not ever knowing
What is all this suffering for
Take these words "so sad to leaveing"
Take this breath I breathe that's warm
Take these tears so softly falling
Take these love forever more

[Chorus]

How long is forever
If I can't see you anymore
I'll miss you most whenever October winds began to blow
Now the leaves have started turning
Wind whispers through my door
And I'm dreaming of my father
Save in my heart forever more
