The Lay of Our Love

One morning
 As the leaves were falling
 I found my life leaving
 Couldn't help but calling
 And he must have heard my cry
 Turning to me with a tear in his eye

 One autumn
 Parting came relieving
 She ran up behind me
 Poorly hid her grieving
 Come wailing wind chill my heart
 Come the rain fall on me as I depart

 Life left us
 Yesterday's outshining
 Our any tomorrow
 With a silver lining
 Remember a distant day
 For even memories may fade away

 Come lay down
 By my side and sing me
 An ode to the fallen
 Make it come inside me
 Do you ever think thereof
 While the cold wind weeps the lay of our love
