Changes Tab

by St Peters Crispian


         
Sit by my side
                     
Come as close as the air
                   
Share in a memory of gray
               
And wander in my words
               
Dream about the pictures
       -  -  
That I paint of changes

               
Green leaves of summer
               
Turn red in the fall
               
To brown and to yellow

They fade
                    
And then they have to die
                  
Trapped within the circle time
--     
Parade of changes

            
Scenes of my young years
              
Are warm in my mind
                      
Visions of shadows that shine
             
Till one day I returned
                       
And found they were the victims
       --    
Of the vines of changes

                    
The world's spinning madly
                
It drifts in the dark
                         
Swings through a hollow of haze
                 
A race around the stars
(A race around the stars)
                              --
A journey through the universe ablaze
(A journey through the universe ablaze)
     
With changes

                  
Your tears will be trembling
                   
Now we're somewhere else
                            
One last cup of wine, we will pour
                         
And I'll kiss you one more time
                    
And leave you on the rolling
       --   
River shores of changes

                     
I'll kiss you one more time
(I'll kiss you one more time)
                                 --
And leave you on the rolling river shores
(And leave you on the rolling river shores)
   
Of changes
