And Then Came Fall

I get too excited during spring

The whistling birds, a new beginning

The sun awakening from her sleep

A warm embrace, I get in too deep

Then came those hot hot summer days

They blocked my head, they blocked my way

They burned my house, I melted

My everything right down the drain

My love I'm trying to explain

I thought, I ate, I slept, I thought

I couldn't stop thinking, Lord I fought

Against the demons in my head

Against my longing to be dead

My childhood, I relived it all

Looking for answers, and then came fall

And suddenly the chilly days

Brought back the love that we once made

I got so happy deep inside

My heart back home, my tears all dried

Do come inside, please close the door

Don't ever leave me, I am sure

This is what I've been fighting for

I'll hold you close in my embrace

During these cold cold winter days
