She took away our father
And our beloved brother
Gave me my lovely bride
Fall after peacock pride

November
I remember
November
November
Has me puzzled
November

Leaves now on the ground
Pumpkins rotting by the pound
Warm wood stove fires
Sleep cool when you're tired

November I remember
November
November has me befuddled
November

November
November
Happy and hapless
Somehow in November

She had him hospitalized
Before anyone realized
Doctors had him surrounded
Only to be confounded

November I remember
November
November has me puzzled
November

Ambivalence and
Ambulances
Incidental consequences
Nervous glances

November
November
Happy and hapless
Somehow in November
