Love Begins In Fall

In the passage of a moment
from the whisper of a sigh
what began as just a smile
has turned into, “You & I“
and I know it may sound crazy
cause we’re crazy after all
but it’s just the perfect message
because love begins in fall.

I wasn’t looking when I met you
I’ve been looking for all time
for the words to beat my rhythm
for the heart to speak my rhyme
and I must admit you caught me
with my back against the wall
but I laughed when I remembered
that love begins in fall.

As a tree, frees it’s leaves to the wind
so the heart must be healed once again
as the sun sings its last summer song
sweep away broken dreams, move along.

I won’t ask you for tomorrow
we can just enjoy today
if we claim no expectations
no one has to run away
and I hunger to surround you
as you curl up in a ball
and our bodies melt together
because love begins in fall....
