Half Light

Clouds that carry the rain
They hide the sun, leaves change to brown and red
Nights are longer than days
As autumn dies, I wait for fall to end
Half light, I can’t fight, the cold nights
The seasons they will change
Starlight, so sleep tight
Soon spring will come again
Half light, grey sky
Skating on the lake
Moonlight, soon life
Will melt the ice away
Reeds that struggle to grow
A frozen walk along a winter snow
I can’t remember the place
I felt this last, it’s here then gone away
Half light, I can’t fight, the cold nights
The seasons they will change
Starlight, so sleep tight
Soon spring will come again
Half light, grey sky
Skating on the lake
Moonlight, soon life
Will melt the ice away
Words that cover a page
A story by the fire told to pass a winter day
Ravens know where to go
When May returns, they’ll too be flying home
Half light, I can’t fight, the cold nights
The seasons they will change
Starlight, so sleep tight
Soon spring will come again
Half light, grey sky
Skating on the lake
Moonlight, soon life
Will melt the ice away
Spring will come again
Spring will come again
Spring will come again
Spring will come again
