some autumn blues
when i sit down to my story
i will finally tell her what she’s for
yeah, i am for her and she is for me
and we'll be like this forevermore
when i went out late this morning
saw those yellow leaves upon the ground
and i knew right then that she was dying
but her screams didn't make a single sound
yeah, i know one day i’ll sleep beneath her
and i will feel her infinite cold
and when i wake up, we'll both wake up
and we will be just a little bit older
yeah, i can see that black smoke rising
from her ruby red volcano lips
and i can hear those birds a-singing
perched upon her fingertips
and i know one day i'll sleep beneath her
and i will feel her infinite warmth
and i know, i know i'll sleep beneath her
and i won't wake up anymore
yeah, when i sit down to my story
it will be when i have found what i am for
yeah, she knows me and she loves me
but she can't carry me anymore
and i know that i will sleep beneath her
i know i'll feel her infinite warmth
and i know that i will sleep beneath her
and i ain't gonna wake up
no, i ain't gonna wake up
anymore
