When Autumn Comes - Linda Eder

When autumn comes and leaves obey

I think of you when spring was new

And fall was miles away

And when I close my eyes I see you

And I don’t feel the chill

When autumn comes… it's summer still

When autumn comes and wild geese fly

I wonder do you see them too

Across the restless sky

And does October catch you dreaming

Of Central Park in June

Or is love lost beneath the frost

Of autumn’s moon Summers by the sea

When the sun would linger till the moon was high

Days of you and me Underneath a sheltering sky

Did we move too fast for the glow of love to last

When autumn comes and summer goes

I will remember through November

What September knows

That nothing lasts forever and

Summer love moves on So when the leaves begin to change

I find it sad but never strange

That you are all I can recall

When autumn comes
