First of October
The summer's over
The leaves are falling
All around my door
Then I walk in
Early morning talking
Can't you hear us whispering?
Walking knocks your floor
Walking on your floor

Well I'm going deeper
My brother's keeper
I'm looking out for him
The best I can
He's getting older
The year is colder
Got to lean a little closer now
Hear what he's saying
Hear what he's saying

We'll go out 'round then
All through brown now
Long shadows falling
Far out ahead
Those hips have grown now
The year isn't slowed down
Your long hair and long dress
Let them fall for me
Let them fall for me

And will you wait for me to come home?
Will you wait for me?
Brother
Put the weight on me
Brother
Put that weight on me

Great works don't lie there
Ground up and dry there
They wait for impatiently
Your hands to find
Leap through the cages
Can't you feel the ages
Rise up like dust now
In the sunlight there
In the sunlight

And will you wait for me to come home?
Will you wait for me?
Brother
Put your weight on me
Brother
Put the weight on me
Sister
Put that weight on me
Sister
Put that weight on me

Well I'm going deeper
My brother's keeper
I'm looking out for him
The best I can
