Well an old friend from his old end of town dropped by today
And way down deep inside me something died
When she came 'round to see him that way
Here it comes again, that same old chilly wind will blow
Like a cold winter squall
And I'll begin to feel the chill of an early fallAnd I'll be drinkin' again
And thinkin' whenever she calls
There's a storm comin' on
And it won't be too long 'til the snow falls
Oh, I'll be sober some
But when October comes and goes
In no time at all
I'll begin to feel the chill of an early fallOh how quick they slip away
Here today and gone tomorrow
Love and seasons never stay
Bitter winds are sure to followNow there's no doubt it's gonna be cold out tonight, I've shivered all day
And when I look in his eyes, needin' to hold him so tight, he just looks away
Oh, he'll swear that it's true, she's just someone he knew long ago
But I'll know that's not all
And I'll begin to feel the chill of an early fall
