The Moody Blues Forever Autumn lyrics

The summer sun is fading
As the year grows old
And darker days are drawing near

The winter winds will be much colder
Now you're not here
I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky
And one by one they disappear

I wish that I was flying with them
Now you're not here
Like the sun through the trees you came to love me
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away

Through autumns golden gown
We used to kick our way
You always loved this time of year

Those fallen leaves lay undisturbed now

'Cause you're not here
'Cause you're not here
'Cause you're not here

Like the sun through the trees you came to love me
Like a leaf on a breeze you blew away
A gentle rain pours softly on my weary eyes
As if to hide a lonely tear my life will be forever autumn

'Cause you're not here
'Cause you're not here
'Cause you're not here
