Leaves stray from home
Flesh falls from bones
Breathing sweet cold
People walk along
Reaching, breathing, dancing with
Prayers of gold
And how strange that empty branches bring the light of day
We know its warmth yet still we know the pain
The wind, it whispers wearily of change
Time takes its toll
We pay with sight
The trees pass us on
Their colors fade from view
Fading, fleeing, dancing
Prayers of gold
And how strange that empty branches bring the light of day
We know its warmth yet still we know the pain
The wind, it whispers wearily of change
I can't feel the splendor I once knew
I can't sense this beauty without you
But reaching, breathing, dancing prayers of gold
Teach me, plead me just hold on for home
I know the seasons but what after then
Will you see me once again?
Or will we just see darkness then?
Yet how strange
And how strange
Yes how strange
