Autumn by Holly Arrowsmith Lyrics

Autumn is coming
The wisest of seasons
Filling her arms with a harvest to store
Though she knows that a hard winters’ coming
Spring will follow
Of this she is sure

Autumn she brings about changes
And all of these changes
I must learn to embrace
‘Cos I cannot turn the gold back to green
I cannot halt time or decay
No I cannot halt time or decay

Winter is here now
The sun swinging low
Dragging her heels ‘cross the cold empty sky
I can’t remember last time I felt sure
But seasons draw circles
And so must I
Oh Seasons draw circles
And so must I
I asked you to teach me
To trust you when I could not see
Why did I ask such a thing?
‘Cos now I can’t see you
And boy it gets dark in my head
Without your light shining in
Will I see you again?
Will I see you again?

I ache for the river
That’s bent like an arrow
Where the hillside erupts
Into colour divine

If I could go back
I would sit at your feet there
I would drink all your colours like wine
I would drink in your light
I would drink in your light
