Autumn Leaves Revisited Lyrics - City By The Light Divided - Thursday

The leaves will fall 

And so will you 

When you do, bury me under them too 

Seconds pass, we'll make it through 

Eventually we all go home 

It won't be long 

It won't be long 

We walk along the wire tied between horizons 

You close your eyes like it's nothing at all 

Throughout the rise and fall, everything, everything 

Changes, I will be here when you die 

It won't be long 

It won't be long 

Until we find our way home 

Did you hear the trumpets play the day your father died? 

Did a violin swell those circles under your eyes? 

Did you play the part straight, like a marcher? 

Get lost in the beat, thinking and feeling 

Did the drums in the streets make the people dance? 

Or fall to their knees as the sound? 

Knock the leaves from the trees 

As they fall from the branch, the look beautiful 

As they hung in the air 

Spinning around 

Did you float in the air? 

Spinning around 

There must be somewhere that cigarettes burn through the night 

And the leaves don't abandon their trees to the light 

Where the skies always clear 

And the summer never ends 

Won't you take me there? 

The leaves will fall 

So will you 

When you do, bury me 

Under them too 

Seconds pass; we'll make it through 

Eventually we all are going home
