Mitch Allen - November's Over Lyrics

I know a girl who is in over her head
But she tries her best to comfort when I slip into despair
Don't imagine it was easy on her own
Staying up to watch the telephone with nobody home
After dark

We're coming home to a mountain at our feet
But it doesn't help to argue if we'll ever reach the peak
And so we learn to take these steps in our own time
We'll never understand the reasons why, but it's alright
After all

We don't have to be the ones living in fear and dismay
We don't have to be the ones who would let this go to waste
November's over
November's over
November's over
November's over and done

You asked me then if I had found a takeaway
And though I tried my best to answer, I had nothing new to say
And so I had to take some time and write it down
It's nothing really magical I found
But since we're here now

We'd better run for our lives while we're still living
And we'd better take from the world what it's still giving
And if, by grace of water, the tide stays out a little longer
We'll build another sandcastle for ourselves further down the shore
