"Cursing a feeling, caught up by the night     
Repairing the ruin, reducing the sting          
That falling October will bring,                 
Hope that is dreaming, love that is torn,           same progression as
Dancing like dust in the eye of the storm,        /  verse 1 & 2
Truth will be lost, when the mocking bird dies   /
October returns with its cold."                 /

"Fooled by apast, (x02210@1)                        
that the world left behind,                 
Hidden in rocks,                               same as all verses before
that are lost to the shore,                  /
Of silent October we choose to ignore."     /

I hope this of any use to you.
