The sky's changing  Get ready for darker days to come  Neighbours been saying We'd better get the harvest done Fruits of the season  Prepared ahead of time People coughing in their sleep  A cold September breeze disturbs the night 20,000 starlings congregate like clouds upon the wires so Come back quickly Won't you come back quickly And get the harvest in Come back quickly  Won't you come back quickly Before the storm begins. The grapes are ripe now But frost will make them wither on the vine Rain is threatening to paint a water colour vision of decline I need you here beside me My deeply sun kissed friend I need you to come home again  You know the autumn work just never ends Within the arms of winter we will find our strength again so Come back quickly Won't you come back quickly And get the harvest in Come back quickly  Won't you come back quickly Before the storm begins As you were leaving You told me that you'd drive To see the ocean cos you needed Space so you could make up your mind And now there's 20,000 starlings waiting here like clouds upon the wires, upon the wires, upon the wires
