The summer sun is fading as the year grows old
|
And darker days are drawing near
|
The winter winds will be much colder
|
Now you're not here
|
|
I WATCH the birds fly south across the Autumn sky
|
And one by one they DISAPPEAR
|
I wish that I was flying WITH them
|
Now you're not here
|
|
Like the SUN through the trees you came to love me
|
Like a leaf on the breeze you blew away
|
|
Through Autumn's golden gown we used to kick our way
|
You always loved this time of year
|
Those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now
|
Cause you're not here (x3)
|
(Instrumental break)
|
Like the SUN through the trees you came to love me
|
Like a leaf on the breeze you blew away
|
|
A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
|
As if to hide a lonely tear
|
My life will be forever Autumn
|
Cause you're not here (3x)
|
(Instrumental break)
|
Cause you're not here (3x)
|
(short instrumental)
|
Cause you're not here, (fade out)
|
