Eric Delore - You've Done Fine Lyrics

It's coming on autumn
Another year after the fall
Back when I fell for you, girl
That was my wildest season of all

When the maple drops her leaves of gold
To warm the pumpkin on the vine
Then I know it is your birthday, child
And you remain a friend of mine

Summers die and the swallows fly
You never needed any alibis
Truth be told, as we grow older
You're looking better, by and by

Because I know what you've been through
And I know what it took
To bend in the wind
No matter how it shook
Valentine, you've done fine

Let's walk beneath the harvest moon
To gather things that you hold dear
Raise a glass up to the bonfire's glow
To toast the ones no longer here

Grandma Izzy lived to 105
She blessed us with a long goodbye
And a cookbook to remember her
Modern Priscilla pumpkin pie

Summers die and the swallows fly
You never needed any alibis
Truth be told, as we grow older
You're looking better, by and by

Because I know what you've been through
And I know what it took
To bend in the wind
No matter how it shook
Over time, you've done fine

Another trip around the sun
And you're lookin' like a Saint!
The damage cannot be undone
But you're having fun

Morning glories I will bring to you
With purple asters at the dawn
And a sapphire to bedazzle you
If you would keep on keeping on

Summers die and the swallows fly
You never needed any alibis
Truth be told, as we grow older
You're looking better, by and by

Because I know what you've been through
And I know what it took
To bend in the wind
No matter how it shook
Valentine, you've done fine
