And when October goes, the snow begins to fly
Above the smokey roofs; I watch the planes go by.
The children running home beneath a twilight sky
Oh, for the fun of them, when I was one of them.

And when October goes, the same old dream appears
And you are in my arms to share the happy years.
I turn my head away to hide the helpless tears.
Oh, how I hate to see October go.

The children running home beneath a twilight sky
Oh, for the fun of them, when I was one of them.
And when October goes, the same old dream appears
And you are in my arms to share the happy years.
I turn my head away to hide the helpless tears.
Oh, how I hate to see October go.

If you're feelin' fancy free
Come wander through the world with me,
And every place you chance to be
Will be a rendezvous.
Two for the road, we'll travel through the years
Collecting precious memories,
Selecting souvenirs
And living life the way we please.

In summertime the sun will shine.
In winter we'll drink some wine.
And every day that your are mine
Will be a lovely day.
As long as love still wears a smile
I know that we'll be two for the road
And that's a long, long while.

I should be over it now, I know.
It doesn't matter much how old I grow
I hate to see October go.
