Dayna Kurtz - Rise and Fall

If I Go First

I'll wait for you
In weeping autumn
The last tear hanging
Stubborn golden

I'll wait for you
While birches whisper
Their grey hearts curled
On butcher paper

When you no longer
Rise and fall
Or thirst or hunger
Come find me in autumn

I'll wait for you
In winter's daydream
The wood is caught
The flames are kissing

I'll wait for you
'Til its spell is broken
And the river wails
Her belly swollen

When you no longer
Rise and fall
Or thirst or hunger
Come find me in winter

I'll wait for you
If you'll still have me
In fickle spring
I planted lilies

I'll wait for you
In my old garden
With last year's smile
And all its children

When you no longer
Rise and fall
Or thirst or hunger
Come find me in springtime

I'll wait for you
In siege of clover
Geese marching home
The war is over

I'll wait for you
And the sun will rake
Its perfect fingers
Through your hair

When you no longer
Rise and fall
Or thirst or hunger
Come find me in summer
