Oh, feels like autumn's back again so soon
See my father turning gray under a silver moon
Don't remember when he was a young man anymore
Well that's just so long ago
And suddenly I'm asking if you love me all the time
Even when the diamond loses its shine

The heaviness of loss and the weightlessness of a baby boy
The despair and the imminent joy

You know temptation only shows you one side of its face
Got to make sure you see the other before you join the rat race
I don't know why I'm so happy to take care of you but I've learned
To go with the flow and that's what the flow wants to do

So I don't need to tell you do I my girl
You're sunshine you're everything good in the world
Well you know I'm thinking about myself less and less
Only holler if it's S.O.S
Taking bigger steps to get to you

Happy to sit here and watch you and I grow
And bathe in the sweet autumn flow

You know temptation only shows you one side of its face
Got to make sure you see the other before you join the rat race
Don't know why I'm so happy to take care of you but I've learned
To go with the flow and that's what the flow
That's what the flow wants to do
