You disappear a day or so
I have no idea where you go
Then out of the blue you cross my mind
It's me and you just like old timesWalkin' in the autumn breeze
And kickin' up the fallin' leaves
I close my eyes and you're right here
Sayin', "This is my favorite time of year"Whenever you come back to me
I run to meet your memory
And let it take me back to yesterday
Down a country road that winds
Through golden leaves and better times
To a place where my heart longs to be
Whenever you come back to meEven though I know you're gone
I read your name written on the stone
In my dreams there's a river wide
Where we walk side by sideWe leave footprints in the sand
You let go of my hand
At the waters edge you turn and smile
And say, "I'll see you in a little while"Whenever you come back to me
I run to meet your memory
And let it take me back to yesterday
Down a country road that winds
Through golden leaves and better times
To a place where my heart longs to be
Whenever you come back to me
Oh, whenever you come back to me
