I saw Autumn leave​.​.​.

about

"I Saw Autumn Leave" is about an old person reminiscing about a relationship of his youth; it touches on the passing of time, how that creates nostalgia, and how certain things, such as a season, can remind you of some things, or even someone special.

This simple song is the result of a 12-hour cram session of meddling.

lyrics

“One, two, three, four. And the cat crossed the river”

It’s just an autumn leave
It’s just an autumn dream.
Oh darling, how could I forget
The time we both first met.

It’s just another game
Like many ones we’ve played
Hide n’ seek, you and me.
Kissing up in the trees

It was just dumb teen love.
For a moment, we felt brave.
Our love; a billion schemes
What a lovely lucid dream

It’s just a memory.
Leaf colored ebony.
Watching you leave this town,
Hoping we both see soon.

It’s just another ring.
Tree walking into spring.
Waiting for you to come
To what you once called home.

But it’s an autumn leaf.
It’s just an autumn dream.
Hoping we see both again.
When it rains.
