Let's read the trees and their autumn leaves
As they fall like a dress undone
At the end of summers, love will find lovers
Who need the shadow of a winter's sun
Don't tell me you're leaving
We can hide in the evening
It's getting darker than it should
If we read the leaves as they blow in the breeze
Would it stop us now, my love?
Time enough for hard questions,
time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
time enough for tears
The moon is milk and the sky
where it's spilt, it's magic
And we all need to believe
that we can wake in the dream
It's not as hard as it seems
you know, it's harder to leave
Time enough for being braver,
time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
time enough for tears
I heard you say
underneath your breath some kind of prayer
I hear
