October Sky Lyrics

I ain't gonna lie, I'm not the guy

That'll be hung over the pew with my hands held high

In the middle of a Sunday service

But it was a service under October skies

That I first saw your angel eyes

And I just about lost my mind

I'm still searching, I'm still learning

Still trying to figure out who I am

But with your eyes staring back into mine

There ain't no way I'm gonna deny this

I've been pedal, straight to the metal

Ever since I could walk

But with you dazzling in the stars right now

Makes me wanna stop

God must've heard when I sent him a prayer

Cause he sent me a girl right out of thin air

My soul was black and my heart was hollow

I was living like I'd be here tomorrow

You stole my heart and you flipped it around

And that's what you're doing with my heart right now

Slow it down

To a back back forty view, lost in the night

The color of the sunset had nothing on the color of your eyes

Under an October sky

I'm terrified of leaving

But I'm scared of what happens if I stay

Just trying to shoot the breeze and

Maybe make some time for a future day

I remember the cold night in late September

Didn't know if it would be okay

Now all I see is these October skies

And your eyes staring back at me

God must've heard when I sent him a prayer

Cause he sent me a girl right out of thin air

My soul was black and my heart was hollow

I was living like I'd be here tomorrow

You stole my heart and you flipped it around

And that's what you're doing with my heart right now

Slow it down

To a back back forty view, lost in the night

The color of the sunset had nothing on the color of your eyes

Under an October sky

I'm hoping you don't have to say goodbye

I'll see you when I get through the night

Under an October sky
