Autumn Pain

He folds his cards
He's leaving the table forever
Whole, his soul is, once again
As he walks out on the street
Where old men and wisdoms meet
And now my friends, he's one of them
He's wearing a tall hat and with a backpack and with a black alley cat
He's entering the cave of forgotten dreams
What will he find inside
Where all the fears and tears collide
"Naught here, till the end, I reside"
As he moves towards the bar
He picks up that broken stringed guitar
Plays a melody, a soliloquy, he sings
As he sips on his favourite wine
He knows he knows he's got to go
This evening is all about his one last show
And all the words he sang in vain
Will drip down your cheeks like trinkets of autumn rain
Autumn Rain
Autumn Rain
A maddening glance
He gives another chance to the fables
Not knowing the reasons why
From the onset of the snow
Where lonely autumn winds did blow
And now my friends, here we are again
As he flies into the moon
He sees himself in his full bloom
And all the times he thought he'd lost
Were there all along like an endless frost
He goes he goes into the sun
He picks up his daddy's gun
And all the memories that drove him insane
Will fly like fireflies on the windowpane
Oh sweet pain, oh sweet pain
Won't you hold me one more time
Won't you hold me one last time
Oh sweet pain
