Autumn

You were leading us into autumn
You, the dream of the hopeful
You were here to stay
And you'll soon see that yours was the strong heart
From youth to open arms
Embrace all the change that was coming

And all we thought we knew for all of yesterday
We were only children
The way forward, through
And all we thought we knew

You were dreamed by love into the world
Truth
For the last time I shed my skin and breathe in the colour

And all we thought we knew for all of yesterday
We were only human
The way forward, through
And all we thought we knew

When you
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
Before the change is through
Change is coming
When all I am is you

Leading time to river's toil
As the hollow takes shape
Leading myth to mother soil
Being made and unmade

Oh and change has always been this way
Change has always been this way

As light is ever sent over rubble to reign
The all will always end where the nothingness stays

On and change was always on its way
Change has always been this way

(Change, the mother)
Nothing falls into stillness
Time is the motion
(Change, the mother)
In the sum of our silence
Time waits for no one

So who am I to stay the colours as they change?
To call for silence in my pride
And bring stillness to sunrise?

You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
Before the change is through
Change is coming
When all I am is you

You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
And I will wait ahead
Change is coming
To stand and mark the way
