Autumn Love Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No more lighthouses to deceive me
Just leave me floating on the open ocean
And let the moonlight take me anywhere on a tidal flow
And if I capsize it's alright
'Cause I've been feeling too invincible
I need to know depths deeper than the deepest of connections

[Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh oh
This autumn love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Is not enough

[Verse 2]
If there's no beacon tonight to guide me
I'll finally break the shackles of direction
And let the headlights lead me anywhere they wanna go
I feel at home now out on a bough
In the lattice of the backbone
Where the highways are holding in the pieces of our broken hearts

[Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh oh
This autumn love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Is not enough

[Chorus]
Oh oh oh oh oh
This autumn love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Is not enough
Oh oh oh oh oh
This autumn love
Oh oh oh oh oh
Is not enough

[Outro]
Is not enough
Is not enough
Is not enough
Is not enough

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
