With my high-starched collar and my high-top shoes And my hair piled high upon my head I went to lose a jolly hour on the trolley and lost my heart instead. With his light brown derby and his bright green tie He was quite the handsomest of men I started to yen so I counted to ten then I counted to ten again. Clang, clang, clang went the trolley, ding, ding, ding went the bell Zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings From the moment I saw him I fell. Chug, chug, chug went the motor, bump, bump, bump went the break Thump, thump, thump went my heartstrings When he smiled I could feel the car shake. He tipped his hat and took a seat He said he hoped he hadn't stepped upon my feet. He asked my name, I held my breath I couldn't speak because he scared me half to death. Buzz, buzz, buzz went the buzzer, flop, flop, flop went the wheels Stop, stop, stop went my heartstrings As he started to go then I started to know how it feels When the universe reels. As he started to leave, I took hold of his sleeve with my hand And as if it were planned. He stayed on with me and it was grand just to stand With his hand holding mine to the end of the line.

Old Father time checked, so there'd be no doubt; Called on the North wind to come on out, Then cupped his hands so proudly to shout, "La-di-dah di-dah-di-dum, 'tis autumn!' Trees say they're tired, they've born too much fruit; Charmed on the wayside, there's no dispute. Now shedding leaves, they don't give a hoot – La-di-dah di-dah-di-dum, 'tis autumn! (Bridge) Then the birds got together to chirp about the weather Mmmm-mmm-mmm-mmm. After makin' their decision, in birdie-like precision, Turned about, and made a beeline to the south. My holding you close really is no crime – Ask the birds and the trees and old Father Time. It's just to help the mercury climb. La-di-dah di-dah-di-dum, 'tis autumn. (Instrumental) It's just to help the mercury climb. La-di-dah di-dah-di-dum, 'tis autumn.

All I do is dream of you the whole night thru With the dawn, I still go on and dream of you You're every thought, you're every thing, You're every song I ever sing Summer, Winter, Autumn and Spring And were there more than twenty four hours a day They'd be spent in sweet content dreaming away When skies are grey, when skies are blue Morning, noon and night time too All I do the whole day thru, is dream of you All I do is dream of you the whole night thru With the dawn, I still go on and dream of you You're every thought, you're every thing, You're every song I ever sing Summer, Winter, Autumn and Spring And were there more than twenty four hours a day They'd be spent in sweet content dreaming away When skies are grey, when skies are blue Morning, noon and night time to

Thou swell, thou witty Thou sweet, thou grand Wouldst kiss me pretty? Wouldst hold my hand? Both thine eyes are cute too What they do to me Hear me holler, I choose A sweet lollapalooza in thee I'd feel so rich in a hut for two Two rooms, a kitchen I'm sure would do Give me just a plot of, not a lot of land And thou swell, thou witty, thou grand Thou swell, thou witty Thou sweet, thou grand Wouldst kiss me pretty?

Your sweet expression The smile you gave me, The way you looked when we meet It's easy to remember But so hard to forget. I hear you whisper, "I'll always lave you" I know it's over and yet It's easy to remember But so hard to forget. So I must dream To have your hand caress me, Fingers press me tight. I'd rather dream Than have the lonely feeling Stealing through the nigh. Each little moment Is clear before me, And though it brings me regret It's easy to remember But so hard to forget.
