autumn

when the stars swallow the sky

dark turns to light, just for a while.

ill dance the winter alone;

cold heart, cold hands,

on my throne.

time stands still,

and i wish you will.

but you never would,

you never could

so you can spin beneath the falling leaves

to remember where im home.

find me in the sunflower petals on your window sill.

coffee drifting from a kitchen with the counter stains;

if you miss me still,

miss me like the autumn breeze.

- forever running.

ive run far, into the mountains;

in the misty rain i will kiss the silence.

the moon rises in silver for one last game,

you hide and ill find you.

but time stands still,

and i wish you will.

but you never would,

you never could.

so you can spin beneath the falling leaves

to remember where im home.

find me in the sunflower petals on your window sill.

coffee drifting from a kitchen with the counter stains;

if you miss me still,

miss me like the autumn breeze.

- forever running.
