Pretty One More Time - Greg Brown

All the leaves are turning

& the fields are clear

There’s a fire burning

I wish you were here

Pretty one more time

Pretty one more time

Before we’re down the line

Pretty one more time

& the light is raining

From a midwest sky

I’m all through explaining

Goodbye to goodbye

It’s getting dark so early

I walked all afternoon

All i see so clearly

Will be gone so soon

& a dim light beckons

From a roadside bar

I’ll stop in i reckon

I have already come this far

Find a place by the window

I’ve been here before

Babe don’t be a no-show

Come on through that door

I’ll write you a letter

I know you feel the fall

Things may not get better

But we can always stall
