Before October Ends Lyrics

We fold our hearts into paper boats

And we send them through the wood

Our curiosity aloft as we bid farewell for good

And there's nothing left for us to say

Nor reason to provide that you should stay

We must remain mere companions in passing

So I'm gonna write you letter

My newly acquainted friend

I hope to see you again dear

So check your mailbox before October ends

Dear acquaintance, I never caught your name

But we met last week on the southbound train

And though our talk was short and sweet

And odds are low that we will ever meet again

I've had trouble getting you out of my head

So I'm gonna write you letter

My newly acquainted friend

I hope to see you again dear

So check your mailbox before October ends

Though we may just be mere companions in passing

You've left a handprint on my life

And though I know the odds of seeing you are very low

But still I hope we meet again someday

So I'm gonna write you letter

My newly acquainted friend

I hope to see you again dear

So check your mailbox before October ends

We fold our hearts into paper boats

And we send them through the wood

Our curiosity aloft as we bid farewell for good

And there's nothing left for us to say

Nor reason to provide that you should stay

We must remain mere companions in passing
