about
This song came about as a collaboration with our much esteemed friend, the wonderful pianist Stefan Horlitz, to whom we owe the beautiful piano melody and also the recording on his grand piano.
lyrics
The days are closing in now
What’s taking them so long?
It’s bound to happen sometime
It’s the same for everyone
It’s getting late
I feel afraid
But I have to walk it off
I wish you’d stayed
It slipped away
The dark leaves look so pretty
But my soul is wearing off
Reflections of the streetlights
A gleam of hope above
Like love, they will cease glowing
It’s the same for everyone
Dreams torn and frayed
I try to walk them off
I wish you’d stayed
It slipped away
The dark leaves look so pretty
But my soul is wearing off
Leaves are falling from the sky
Charmed by what is left behind
