Summer Again

I'm watching the green
Give into gold
As summer becomes
October's cold
Gravity begs
For one final kiss
She drops it to him
As she gives in

Traces of light
linger around
As laces of white
Fall to the ground
The softest of sounds
For the heaviest things
And the pain
That it brings

As she falls
I try to catch her
For one last touch
Of warmth from summer
As one thing leaves
To becomes another again
I remember when

Don't remember the day
She started to fade
The ground felt a chill
As she gave it away
A whisper
A sigh, for the time
That she passed
But this winter
Won't last

As she falls
I try to catch her
For one last touch
Of warmth from summer
As one thing leaves
To becomes another again
I remember when
Oh, to be
With summer again

The days were warm
And we wore them like skin
Now I feel the effects
Of October again

As she falls
I try to catch her
For one last touch
Of warmth from summer
As one thing leaves
To becomes another again
I remember when
Oh, to be
With summer again

I'm watching the green
Give in to gold
As summer becomes
Octobers cold
