Autumn Songs

I have a lot of songs that I associate with Summer and Winter, but less so for Spring and Fall. What are some of your favorite fall songs?

I will start collecting some via the internet... most of these I don't have, but they sound like stuff I'd like

gregory and the hawk - Season Poem: "One by one/ The days fall beside us/ Like yellow leaves"
Fiona Apple - Pale September: "Pale september, I wore the time like a dress that year / The autumn days swung soft around me, like cotton on my skin"
Yo La Tengo - Autumn Sweater: "We could slip away, wouldn't that be better / Me with nothing to say, and you in your autumn sweater"
Red House Painters - Brown Eyes: "I see the pain in those brown eyes / Fires burn in autumn skies"
Patrick Wolf - Teignmouth: "So when the birds fly south / We'll reach up and hold their tails / Pull up and out of here / And bridle the autumn gales"
Devendra Banhart - Autumn's Child: ""Sing your song / Autumn's child"
Iron & Wine - Naked As We Came: "Birds are leaving over Autumn's ending / One of us will die inside these arms"
Tori Amos - Gold Dust: "Letting names hang in the air / What color hair (auburn crimson) / Autumn knowingly stared"

I'm staring at a deadline for a handbook that I really need to get to the printers today. Argh.

I know it's a little played out...

But the song "Trouble" by Coldplay has always sounded like Fall to me, ever since the first time I heard it. In fact, that was the way I once described it... "the quintessential Fall song."
