Josh Rister - November
Another year, come and gone, they don’t feel as long as I recall
Every one just fades away like the leaves a-drifting in the fall
And that bitter wind that carries them, he used to be a real good friend of mine
But I reckon he got older too ‘cause all I feel when he blows now is spite
I’d be lying if I told you it was just another trip around the sun
Found a new, familiar world by the time all was said and done
My bed’s a little colder now, my conscience just a little more weighed down
I reckon I can only hope that I’m around when the next one rolls around
(Chorus)
Good or bad, make it one to remember
So here’s to another November
(Verse 2)
The man I was a year ago would be confused if he saw me today
Digging out myself in a hole, under my breath, cursing my own name
Dreaming about what could've been, worried about the things that I can’t change
But most of all he’d be surprised seeing me acting my own age
I’ve heard it said that growing up ain’t something that can happen overnight
But if there's one thing I ain’t known for, it’s proving things that should be certain right
I’m doing pretty good I guess, considering my world ended yesterday
Not worried about tomorrow, got enough to keep me occupied today
(Chorus)
Good or bad, make it one to remember
So here's to another November
(Refrain)
It’s gettin’ cold, watch me smile and shiver
Here’s to another November
