t was never the plan to just up and leave
You know I've tried to understand
Now it's out of my hands
And the months just creep
Now I'm just another man
And they're calling the names on the local station
Praying for the marching man
Come the fall, I will remember you
Though I'll be gone November
Come May I still remember you
In your dress on the porch waiting for the morning
With your flowers in your hand
In the shoes that we bought
Waiting for the marching band
Come the fall, I will remember you
Though I'll be gone December
Come May I still remember you
Come the fall, I will remember you
Though I'll be gone September
Come May I still remember you
It was never the plan to just up and leave
You know I've tried to understand
Come the fall, I will remember you
And If I'll be gone forever
I'd still remember..
