Autumn Wind

I felt the inner rhythm

Of this life I know

You’ll give your soul to the river

When it’s your time to go

Burning light of the water

Please do not leave me alone

I’ve seen a lot in this world

But grieving is nothing I know

I only know your body when it has a soul

I’ve never read the bible, but after this life I know

That you’ll come on over like the autumn wind

And I’ll see you again

If you leave your clothes in the closet

What will I do with them?

How will I take on the world

Of evil without your hand

God bless the grave yard digger

What will your tombstone say?

Bury you next to the river

Next to your mother’s grave

I only know your body when it has a soul

I’ve never read the bible, but after this life I know

That you’ll come on over like the autumn wind

And I’ll see you again
