The weather is changing Like things always are Changing In ways that we want And in ways that we don’t We can’t control The things that are going To come to us Or run away from us I thought I’d hold you Forever until the end Of our days But you say you’re changing Yet you look the same To me Beautiful as always Even though there Is sadness in your smile I can feel it As it holds my heart In downturned corners Cold As the autumn street Where we find ourselves Close Enough to touch Though we don’t touch Imperceptibly The distance grows We don’t move But we can feel it I want to reach out To hold you Here with me You’re already gone As you stand Here I wave towards you Simply wordless Goodbye
