I met you in the autumn rain,
Where leaves would dance and refrain,
You had a spark, a fleeting glow,
But now you're just a shadow I used to know.

I used to see the light in your eyes,
But now it's fading like the sunset skies,
You used to make me laugh, used to make me smile,
Now it's been a while, now it’s been a while.

I tried to reach out, tried to hold on tight,
But you slipped away, like a fading light,
Now I'm standing here, wondering why,
Watching you drift away, like a cloud in the sky.

You're so dry and I do know why,
You're so dry , like summer in July,
You're so dry, please don't reply,
You're so dry and I am not gonna lie.

I used to find the warmth in your touch,
But now it's cold and it don't mean much,
The words we spoke, they used to be gold,
Now they’re just echoes of a story untold.

Your words are echoes in the night,
They fade away, out of sight,
You used to be my morning sky,
Now you're just a distant cry.

I tried to break through, tried to make it right,
But you turned away, like day from the night,
Now I’m standing here, with nothing to say,
Watching you fade, as you slip away.

You're so dry and I do know why,
You're so dry like summer in July,
You're so dry, please don't reply,
You're so dry and I am not gonna lie.

Maybe it’s time we said goodbye,
Let the tears fall and let the river run dry,
We’ve been holding on to something that’s gone,
It’s time to let go, it’s time to move on.

Your silence speaks a thousand lies,
In your eyes, no compromise,
You used to light up every room,
But now you're just a looming gloom.

You're so dry and I do know why,
You're so dry like summer in July,
You're so dry, please don't reply,
You're so dry and I am not gonna lie.

So here's my song, a last goodbye,
No more tears, no more why,
I'll find my way, and I'll get by,
You're so dry, but I'll reach the sky.
So dry, so dry, I’m not gonna lie,
Time to let go, time to say goodbye.
