Lyrics
It's a May-September romance
I'm in fall, she's in full bloom
When her spring breeze comes rollin' in
Leaves scatter around my room
Their rustling against the window
Announces she's arrived
Some calling in my dormant heart
Says "time to come alive"
Oh Miss May
Seasons come, but they don't stay
Oh-oh Miss May
Chase the autumn leaves away
Thirty minutes door to door
To get to her side of town
I moved from there many moons ago
My roots are in that ground
On every corner there's a memory
Where I meet my younger self
Miss May will meet herself there too
When I'm ashes on a shelf
Oh Miss May
Seasons come, but they don't stay
Oh-oh Miss May
She chase the autumn leaves away
A woman's look in the lobby says "dirty old man"
Well, winter comes quick, understand
Seasons don't take commands
It's only mother nature they obey
I feel the sun and turn my cheek
Here she comes I stand to greet
Miss May
"Hey Miss May"
When she asks about my past
I don't go on too long
'Less my mistakes might save her some
After our season's gone
See her dance upon the new green grass
Feel the promise of days ahead
I'm gentle and I'm grateful
In case she remembers a thing I said
Oh Miss May
Seasons come, but they don't stay
Oh-oh Miss May
She chase the autumn leaves away
Yeah please bring your breeze
Chase the autumn leaves away
The autumn leaves away.
