Time Enough for Tears
Let's read the trees and their autumn leaves
As they fall like a dress undone
At the end of summers, love will find lovers
Who need the shadows of a winter's sun
Don't tell me you're leaving, we can hide in the evening
It's getting darker than it should
If we read the leaves as they blow in the breeze
Would it stop us now, my love?
Time enough for hard questions
Time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
Time enough for tears
Well, the moon is milk and the sky where it's spilt, it's magic
And we all need to believe that we can wake in the dreams
It's not as hard as it seems
You know, it's harder to leave
Time enough for being braver
Time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
And time enough for tears
I heard you say underneath your breath some kind of prayer
I heard you say underneath your breath
That you never wanna feel this way about anybody else
Time enough for hard questions
Time enough for all our fears
Time, it's tougher than we both know yet
Time enough for tears
Time enough for being braver
Time enough, I love this time of year
Time, it's tough, it's running away from us
Time enough for tears
Time enough
I know, I know
It's okay, it's okay
As they fall like a dress undone
At the end of summers, love will find lovers
Who need the shadows of a winter's sun
Don't tell me you're leaving, we can hide in the evening
It's getting darker than it should
If we read the leaves as they blow in the breeze
Would it stop us now, my love?
Time enough for hard questions
Time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
Time enough for tears
Well, the moon is milk and the sky where it's spilt, it's magic
And we all need to believe that we can wake in the dreams
It's not as hard as it seems
You know, it's harder to leave
Time enough for being braver
Time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
And time enough for tears
I heard you say underneath your breath some kind of prayer
I heard you say underneath your breath
That you never wanna feel this way about anybody else
Time enough for hard questions
Time enough for all our fears
Time, it's tougher than we both know yet
Time enough for tears
Time enough for being braver
Time enough, I love this time of year
Time, it's tough, it's running away from us
Time enough for tears
Time enough
I know, I know
It's okay, it's okay
