When I left in Autumn rain A sense of purpose found me Absolution never came You can't take solace lightly I want to wash away the days Each one I found by your side To forget Summer's haze And push back the rolling tide The brisk wind on her cheek As Winter's breath blew wildly To keep her warm week to week You can't take lost love mildly The bloom in those dark eyes As Spring brought life to heart The nights under starry skies Forgetting as they fall apart Autumn rain comes once more Every year the sad waves set Each memory harder to ignore I'm forgetting to forget
