when i opened my eyes

i saw the sky

and leaves falling down

came to rest one by one

or i'd fall into the ground

and the winds blew and covered me

to be seen by no passer by

except for you

passing through

caught my covered eye

stand up follow me

i'll take you home

wipe the dirt

from your face

my how you've grown

your voice i've missed your words i love

i'd follow wherever you lead

but let us rest

a minute here

i've also missed this bed

come lay by my side

watch the shadows on the wall

hear the wind outside singing let me fall

and with the morning's light

we were on our way

to see how

with evening's light

we'd call the day

and i know what once was

will never be

but the road's long

and the day is young

and that's enough for me

come lay by my side

watch the shadows on the wall

hear the winds outside singing let me fall

let me fall

let me fall
