So dark these days of autumn
As winds swell up and carry leaves
to distant places out of my reach
mixing colours that appear so bright
while dancing in the fading light
as day draws sooner to its end
and darker places is where I spend
my time my thoughts my silly hopes
all in a mind that thinks it copes
as darkness creeps in I feel a chill
and think of far away summer still
clinging on to those brighter days
filled with joy and brighter ways
I fear the night but so do all
we hang in tight and fear the fall
we search for ways to get a grip
so we don't lose our way and trip
As I say goodbye to fading light
fearful of a lasting winters night
thoughts still haunting me with fear
that daybreak might be far from near
to distant places out of my reach
mixing colours that appear so bright
while dancing in the fading light
as day draws sooner to its end
and darker places is where I spend
my time my thoughts my silly hopes
all in a mind that thinks it copes
as darkness creeps in I feel a chill
and think of far away summer still
clinging on to those brighter days
filled with joy and brighter ways
I fear the night but so do all
we hang in tight and fear the fall
we search for ways to get a grip
so we don't lose our way and trip
As I say goodbye to fading light
fearful of a lasting winters night
thoughts still haunting me with fear
that daybreak might be far from near
