I never handle the autumn well
When the leaves glide down
It reminds me of your shoes
Dancing to the blues
When I travel these broken streets
And the leaves blind me
I think by now I'm losing count
Of times I let us down
So I'll be wearing these jeans all week
Yeah I'll be losing a week of sleep
But don't be feeling so bad for me, bad for me
I'm happy you feel free
Last autumn you left this town
Foliage layered on the ground
Ripped denim tucked in your boots
I haven't heard your news
When I pass by your empty house
I hope you've aged just as well
I remember the sound of you
From a life we outgrew
So I'll be wearing these jeans all week
Yeah I'll be losing a week of sleep
But don't be feeling so bad for me, bad for me
I'm happy you feel free
So I'll be wearing these jeans all week
Yeah I'll be finding a week of peace
And don't be feeling so bad for me, bad for me
I'm happy you feel free
Has this planet let you down
Do you like what you've found
Do you have a place called home
Or are you still on the go
When the trees start shedding leaves
I'm sure your mind finds me
If I show up in your dreams
Know that I too feel free
Can you think back to when you left
Gave me a box of my things you kept
Almost threw out everything
But then I saw these jeans
Now that summer has truly gone
And the green moves on
I will wait for the canopy
To fall beneath my jeans
