October’s Song Songtext
von Skid Row

Mother, step to the light that′s before you
Mother, changin' the seasons I see
Ooh, winter′s on the rise
Autumn still in my eyes
Reborn as daylight dies

The night of the longest goodbyes
New life is passing us by

How do we get down the mountain we climb, day by day?
What do we do when the light that we shine fades away?
Fades away

Father, saving our places in time
Passing into the sublime
Oh, father, life has gone to sleep
Strength through your memory
Silent and so serene

I'm scared of what cannot be seen
But I'll see you again in between


How do we get down the mountain we climb, day by day?
What do we do when the light that we shine fades away?
Oh, we leave the prayers and confessions behind, day by day
Waiting on fate to bring something divine and be saved
And be saved, oh-oh

(Oh-oh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, oh)

(Ooh) how do we get down the mountain we climb, day by day? (By day)
What do we do when the light that we shine fades away? Ooh
We leave the prayers and confessions behind, day by day
Waiting on fate to bring something divine and be saved (oh)
And be saved, oh-oh

Oh, day by day, we′ll get by
Day by day (day by day), we′ll get by (get by)
Day by day, we'll get by
Day by day, we′ll get by
