October Sky

Well, she slid down the hall in her socks and yelled, "Come outside"
 No, no, no, nothing's wrong
 I just happen to have a surprise
 So we fell through the door like the autumn leaves
 And I wrestled my brother down to his knees
 Just to watch as her rocket shot into the October sky
 There's a picture of us
 In a layer of dust
 On the mantle
 Right by my cigarettes that I smoke since you left
 'Cause you said you had to fly
 In your October sky
 ♪
 Now I work in the city and I blend into the crowd
 And the people grieve with me since the towers came down, down
 You could cut the pollution with a butter knife
 You could wake up at two and then party all night
 But I'm missin' my mama, so I stand on the street and get high
 There's a picture of us
 Hidden in a layer of dust
 On the mantle
 Right by my cigarettes that I smoke since you left
 'Cause you said you had to fly
 In your October sky
 ♪
 Oh, woah, oh
 And as I go back home to Memphis
 I remember days that I
 I was outside shootin' rockets
 Almost as high, high
 In your October
 In your October
 In your October
 In your October
 In your October sky
