Autumn Suits You Well

about

This one is written in the unlikely mash-up of The Smiths (first half of each verse) and 1967/68 Pink Floyd (second half of each verse). I mean, why not?

I had a friend who I was in a band with and I really thought we might make it. But we didn't. And the autumn not so bad.

lyrics

Autumn Suits You Well
=================
With your whiskey glass and your Telegraph,
Autumn suits you well,
A cheeky half and a round of laughs,
Autumn suits you well,
Autumn suits you well.

Was there once a well of hunger?
Was there once a cause?
Use and comfort dulls the cage’s bars,
But many years ago, we set our hearts,
Upon the stars.

A little stroll down through the park,
Autumn suits you well,
Sofa, TV, after dark,
Autumn suits you well,
Autumn suits you well.

Weren’t we going to shake the world up?
Weren’t we going to change?
Somewhere in the attic’s your guitar,
For many years ago, we set our hearts,
Upon the stars.

A forgotten box of photographs,
Autumn suits you well,
There will be no epitaph,
Autumn suits you well,
Autumn suits you well,
Autumn suits you well.
