lyrics

Autumn leaves are leaving me every time I see them fall
I am saddened by the sticks and branches, yet we manage somehow.
This dusty road's looking different in the orange foreign light.
Where did my wonderous Summer go did it vanish in the night ?

You must see the wind the way it stands when Demeter's daughters dance.

She grows more quickly every day feel the brisk winds take flight.
Hole filled scarf, of green and of brown, breaks down; she buys blankets of white.
Her second daughter fumes alone one warm body she violently seeks.
The man whose pa is top admiral, tho he's been at sail ten thousand weeks.

You must see the wind the way it stands when Demeter's daughters dance.

The youngest one in our family is living in different times.
She pats her rain and claps her thunder her son wondering counting off lights in the skies.
They cast sad looks back at my shore and I bore a smile when they did.
I can't tell you if they saw me. This soulful mama keeps me hid.

You must see the wind the way it stands when Demeter's daughters dance.

Autumn leaves are leaving me every time I see them fall
I am saddened by the sticks and branches yet we manage some how.
All we are now. Here and now.
All you came with was all you saw.

If I knew somebody, it wouldn't matter... ... more
