Autumn Leaves Revisited - Thursday

The leaves will fall
And so will you
When you do bury me under them too
Seconds pass
We'll make it through
Eventually we all go home
It won't be long
It won't be long
We walk along the wire tied between horizons
You close your eyes like it's nothing at all
Throughout the rise and fall everything everything
Changes I will be here when you die
It won't be long
It won't be long
Until we find our way home
Did you hear the trumpets play the day your father died
Did a violin swell those circles under your eyes
Did you play the part straight like a marcher
Get lost in the beat thinking and feeling
Did the drums in the streets make the people dance
Or fall to their knees as the sound
Knock the leaves from the trees
As they fall from the branch the look beautiful
As they hung in the air
Spinning around
Did you float in the air
Spinning around
There must be somewhere that cigarettes burn through the night
And the leaves don't abandon their trees to the light
Where the skies always clear
And the summer never ends
Won't you take me there
The leaves will fall
So will you
When you do bury me
Under them too
Seconds pass
We'll make it through
Eventually we all are going home
