we were 17 and on our own when we hit the gas for the great unknown
i was named for a boy she was named for the fall
and nothing much elsa really mattered at all
i knew what happened on our kitchen floor
and she knew what i ment when i wrote on the door
secrets spelled into that door
and everyone was a peice of my heart

its a lullybe its a beautiful life
and sings me to sleep most every night
so i hold it close and i hide it way thats how i keep it from going a stra
love doesn't need a ryhme over reason to be
this is the story of autumn and me


we grew up fast in a few short years
and we litterd the path with the track of our tears
and we carved our names in that pervarvar wall
and nothing much else really matters at all
we learned every line in our 25 years
we cryed over boys and we laughed over beers
i wouldn't trade that girl for a soul
she lets me know right where i belong

its a lullybe its a beautiful life
and sings me to sleep most every night
so i hold it close and i hide it way thats how i keep it from going a stra
love doesn't need a ryhme over reason to be
this is the story of autumn and me

roof top dancing and in the summer heat and
a 2 car crash on a one way street
strangers are movin up to the forth floor
strange nobody knows me more

its a lullybe its a beautiful life
and sings me to sleep most every night
so i hold it close and i hide it way thats how i keep it from going a stra
love doesn't need a ryhme over reason to be
this is the story of autumn and me


i was named for a boy she was named for the fall
