Autumn, My Sweetheart

Autumn, sweetheart, come

Lay down and lie still

Let my hands move

Across your sad skin

 

Autumn, sweetheart, smile

I miss it like spring

And need it like food

Step away from night

 

Autumn, sweetheart, scream

Yell loud and ring out

Wreck shipyard dreams

We dreamt last year.
