Falsetto

Like a last plea
Set in motion
Till it finally slows down
Slight maneuver
Change in cadence
Somebody at the doorstep
Shot a long look
Attic windows
Seeing something duck down
Took the wind out
Of that last sail
Blue skies are turning
Old school
New age
Touched by reaction
Old age
New school
Sussing out a suitor
This was your life
Never leave it
Mettle and disengage it
Been a long time
Since I knew you
My gift was leaving
