Autumn Song

Verse 1

Mist rises where the water bends

Morning hush above the stones

Breath of dew upon my skin

Memories wrapped in quiet tones

Pre-Chorus

Amber leaves fall in the stream

Every start holds part of the dream

Chorus

Softly turning over dawn

Hold the memory as it’s gone

River’s quiet, holding strong

Beneath the gentle autumn song

Post-Chorus

Ooh, stay with me

Ooh, quietly

Verse 2

Steps along the grassy shore

Light drifting from distant yesterdays

Heart waits within the waiting oaks

All that’s given, never stays

Pre-Chorus

Time moves slow in silver haze

Silent prayers, the old refrain

Chorus

Softly turning over dawn

Hold the memory as it’s gone

River’s quiet, holding strong

Beneath the gentle autumn song

Post-Chorus

Ooh, stay with me

Ooh, quietly

Bridge

Echoes linger in the field

Shadows lengthen on the moor

Open hands release the day

Carried gently evermore

Chorus

Softly turning over dawn

Hold the memory as it’s gone

River’s quiet, holding strong

Beneath the gentle autumn song

Post-Chorus

Ooh, stay with me

Ooh, quietly

Outro

Golden silence finds me here

Calm surrender in the breeze

Let the fading light appear

Closing softly through the trees
