I didn't know that you'd be called away
A fitting end to this unrequited play
The winds of change came blowing in too fast
Awoke us from the dream we hoped would last

Autumn dreams and a whistle blows
Your ship set sail and now you've gotta go
Autumn days and summer nights
Will you remember me in days gone by?

I never knew I could be swept away
Was never free to say the things I wanted to say
Connections crossed and we wasted too much time
Going through the motions like everything was fine
Autumn dreams and whistle blows
Your ship set sail and now you've gotta go
Autumn days and summer nights
Will you remember me in days gone by?
Autumn dreams and a whistle blows
Now you've got to go
Whistle blows

Thoughts of you still haunt me night and day
How many moons before they'll fade away?
Bottom's up, and no potion kills the pain
Cast away in an endless sea of rain
Autumn dreams and whistle blows
Your ship set sail and now you've gotta go
Autumn days and summer nights
What's to become of us in days gone by?
Autumn dreams and a whistle blow
Now you've got to go
Whistle blows
