Well i left this New England town
Just before the leaves came down
And winter showed her face
I miss the falling red and gold
September when the air gets cold
Came out to a different place
I didn’t see the change
Isn’t it all so strange
Just the way that we turn our heads from side to side
Missing what’s before our eyes
Getting closer every day
Didn’t see the change
I remember just a year before
With all that snow outside our door
Took us all day to remove
And we fell asleep in our warm bed
And dreamed of worlds inside our heads
Funny what twelve months can do
I didn’t see the change
Isn’t it all so strange
Just the way that we turn our heads from side to side
Missing what’s before our eyes
Getting closer every day
Didn’t see the change
Didn’t see the ways the days get colder all the time
Didn’t see the nights we spent fighting
Drawing our lines
Maybe we don’t notice how slow we lose our place
One day we look in the mirror and see some stranger’s face
I didn’t see the change
Isn’t it all so strange
I didn’t see the change
Isn’t it all so strange
Just the way that we turn our heads from side to side
Missing what’s before our eyes
Getting closer every day
Didn’t see the change
I didn’t see the change
Didn’t see the change
