The dark days gather early now
There's rain upon my window
The winter mists come stealing round
As daylight greets my pillow
These days are a time for mourning
While all the world remembers
I remember seeing you
Here in late November
Your photograph is on the wall
With your little family
A hundred years and more have passed
Since it was taken
For half those years I've seen your face
Glowing as an ember
I remember knowing you
Here in late November
Thank you for the music
Thank you for the song
Thank you for the laughter
Though it didn't last for long
Thank you for your caring,
The best that you could render
I remember loving you
Here in late November
My girls are grown and married now
I have a grandchild too
As the years come circling round
My thoughts come back to you
I tell them all the stories
All the stories I remember
I remember life with you
Here in late November
Thank you for the music,
Thank you for the song,
Thank you for the laughter,
Though it didn't last for long,
Thank you for the caring,
The best that you could render
I remember loving you
Here in late November,
I remember loving you
Here in late November.
