lyrics

And it came, as no surprise
Her lashes folding gently
And the look of concern
In her eyes you found
Comfort and repose
In the autumns ending
And the hems of her clothes

What a gasp, oh what a swell
How lungs could grow so quickly
Pulling air from your mouth
Spelling foreign sound
Constant and discreet
While the leaves attending
Have blanketed our feet

The rise and fall
The best laid plans
You place your crown
Beneath her hands
Hearts collide
To form one whole
As seasons shift
From pole to pole

And a house, portrayed a home
The sunset so intently
Scattered light through her hair
Revealing thoughts unknown
Callous and remote
While her fingers tensing
Now gripping at your throat

What a shame, oh what a mess
To recount every memory
In reverse, without end
An onset of regress
Unnerving and deprived
But improved from mending
And sharply you survived

The lies befall
The circumstance
You climb back down
Adjust your glance
Charts defined
Maps unfold
As seasons drift
From pole to pole
