Light Treason - Autumn Bird Lyrics

Seasons change autumn to winter
Spring, summer then autumn again
And I know you well when the cold comes
You'll smile and fly away
You're a bird, I am a scientist
Studying your beauty and grace
But 3 months of winter is 3 months too long
To see your pretty face

So I'll just travel down south
And find you no matter the case
I need to tell you I love you
And that your warmth won't be replaced
As long as I have a say

Bury me into the snow
I know I'll finally find a home
I've been lonesome since autumn left
Ever since you've been gone
The city is bright, not from you
But reflections you can't count on
I still miss you and your song
Singing to bring in the dawn

Officer of beauty do your sworn duty
Shine down and show me your words
It is my turn to learn how these wings work
To sing love just like a bird
So that when you leave soon
I can fly away too
