November

Mmm, mmm, mmm

Woke up this morning

With my heartache gone

Bright golden morning

Shining everyone

You held my daughter's hand

You held my daughter's hand

This strange November

Leaves are fluttering

Still long November

Winter muttering

You kissed my son today

You kissed his frown away

You held my son today

I remembered the song we were singing

Just remembered the dream we were dreaming

There was noise on the line

But it's gone, gone, gone

And everything's clear

And everything's quiet

Mmm, mmm

Woke up this morning

As a suffragette

I spoke up this morning

Took a deeper breath

You hold my mother's hand

I hold my mother's hand

She held her mother's hand

Not asking for some toll certainty

Just one pacific possibility

See my father's eyes

Look in my father's eyes

You held his son today

I remembered the song we were singing

Just remembered the dream we were dreaming

Couldn't hear through the noise

But it's gone, gone, gone

And everything's quiet

And everything's clear

And you were right there

And I am right here

And I hear it

I hear it now

I hear it

I hear it now

I can hear it

I can hear it now
