lyrics:

Falling for Fall

All the shaggy profs, with their shuffling walks
Wander around like well-read hobos
And the student talk of whether we’re here or not
Fills up the air with such a sense of know-how

It must be September again
I’m walking on air again
I’m wearing my last of summer flair
I’m going back to school again
Hope this feeling never ends
I’m falling for fall without a care in the world

And the patio crowd with their here and now
Stay out late until they feel senseless
Of course it’s popppycock but then it’s worth a shot (hey why not)
To let go of all of our defences

Looks like pizza again
I’m stretching out my limbs again
I’m strutting my stuff like Fred Astaire
I’m going back to school again
I’m thinking out loud again
I’m falling for fall without a care in the world

Winter I’ll be numb to life
Spring I’ll be buried alive in work
Summer, well that’ll be just alright
But when the geese head south, I’m gonna shout it out

It must be September again
I’m walking on air again
I’m wearing my last of summer flair
I’m going back to school again
Hope this feeling never ends

I’m falling for fall without a care in the world, world, world
