New October

It’s a new October It’s a brand new spring It’s not what comes after It’s the start of everything The kites are flying A different remedy It’s a blue milk Monday For all to see Every day is Friday Every day’s the same It’s a new October Just with a different name It’s a new October It’s a brand new spring It’s a new October The start of everything It’s a new October We’ll light the lantern In the growing dark We’ll raise the standard Right from the start Sing hallelujah And praise amen It’s a new October As it starts again It’s a new October When the wind stops blowing And the kites come down You’re left with knowing Your dream in on the ground Are your arms not ready To pick it up once more Is your heart too heavy From keeping score It’s a new October It’s a brand new spring It’s a new October The start of everything It’s a blue October Just the same old thing
