Autumn
The autumn leaves were falling down
The grass was turning into brown
We smiled, we laughed, we cried, and I
Woke up with you there by my side
The fog of that October morn
Like smoke we breathed out nights before
You were cold, I kept you warm
I surrender what I swore
The sun had shone your skin so bright
Like you're the moon that lights the sky
Like souls long for an afterlife
I'll yearn for you another nights
I lived, I loved, I died like ghosts
For moments on the telephone
You taught me how to love alone
You made this perfect world my home
We may not live a joyous life
But peace, my dear, is brought by thine
Eyes for which I see not yet
Hear, peace lies with impermanence
Coffee mugs, banana bread
Mundane books we never read
Tall stories, old as oldest time
Serve us blind to naked eyes
I'm selfish, this I say to you
You got me reaching like a fool
I cannot touch, I dare not try
For if I should what shall I find?
A heart that pumps blood, not for mine?
A leaf that is not from my vine?
A magic had explained to me?
An Ivory not so rare or sweet?
The grass was turning into brown
We smiled, we laughed, we cried, and I
Woke up with you there by my side
The fog of that October morn
Like smoke we breathed out nights before
You were cold, I kept you warm
I surrender what I swore
The sun had shone your skin so bright
Like you're the moon that lights the sky
Like souls long for an afterlife
I'll yearn for you another nights
I lived, I loved, I died like ghosts
For moments on the telephone
You taught me how to love alone
You made this perfect world my home
We may not live a joyous life
But peace, my dear, is brought by thine
Eyes for which I see not yet
Hear, peace lies with impermanence
Coffee mugs, banana bread
Mundane books we never read
Tall stories, old as oldest time
Serve us blind to naked eyes
I'm selfish, this I say to you
You got me reaching like a fool
I cannot touch, I dare not try
For if I should what shall I find?
A heart that pumps blood, not for mine?
A leaf that is not from my vine?
A magic had explained to me?
An Ivory not so rare or sweet?
