Another cold October
And the leaves are on the ground
I'm taking in the clean air
As the sun is going down

There's music on my radio
But it's a million miles away
And church bells in the distance
Mark the end of the day

And then you are by my side
Offering to be my guide
You take me by the hand
And make me understand
And I follow when you lead me back inside

Another crowded highway
People fighting to get by
Racing to their destinations
Just as fast as they can fly

And when we've all arrived
What is it that we'll find
Will the meaning of it all
Be out of sight and out of mind

And then you are by my side
Offering to be my guide
You take me by the hand
And make me understand
And I follow when you lead me back inside

Another long work day
Trying to keep things going strong
Some fantasize of careers
While others drift along

And when the day is over
Will we wish that we worked more
Will we have any idea
Of what all the working's for

And then you are by my side
Offering to be my guide
You take me by the hand
And make me understand
And I follow when you lead me back inside
