Sweeter Than the Fall

Verse

Copper leaves are spinning where the courtyard lights hang low

Someone's playing fiddle like the summer won't let go

My shoes don't fit right but I'm kicking them off anyway

There's a chill in the air but the fire's in how we sway

Pre-Chorus

So what if the season's turning

What if the frost is near

Let the whole sky come down burning

We've got right now, right here

Chorus

Sweeter than the fall, we're gonna dance tonight

Spin till the color leaves the leaves, alright

Free like the wind don't answer to a name

Sweeter than the fall, we're burning just the same

Verse

Grandad's old accordion, held together with string

Every crack in the wood still remembers how to sing

The harvest moon is rising over rooftops turning gold

We'll dance until the morning steals the story we're told

Pre-Chorus

So what if the season's turning

What if the frost is near

Let the whole sky come down burning

We've got right now, right here

Chorus

Sweeter than the fall, we're gonna dance tonight

Spin till the color leaves the leaves, alright

Free like the wind don't answer to a name

Sweeter than the fall, we're burning just the same

Bridge

Let the winter come and find us laughing

Let it take the warmth, we'll make our own

Every ending's just a drum that's asking

Are you gonna leave, or are you home

Chorus

Sweeter than the fall, we're gonna dance tonight

Spin till the color leaves the leaves, alright

Free like the wind don't answer to a name

Sweeter than the fall, we're burning just the same

Sweeter than the fall, we're burning just the same
