Time Enough For Tears

Let's read the trees and their Autumn leaves,

As they fall like a dress undone

At the end of Summers, love will find lovers

Who need the shadows of a winter sun



Don't tell me you're leaving

We can hide in the evening

It's getting darker than it should

If we read the leaves as they blow in the breeze

Would it stop us now, my love



Time enough for hard questions

Time enough for all our fears

Time is tougher than we both know yet,

Time enough for tears



The moon is milk and the sky where it's split

Is magic, and we all need to believe, that we can

Wake up in the dream, it's not as hard as it seems

You know its harder to leave



Time enough for being braver

Time enough for all the fears

Time is tougher than we both know yet

Time enough for tears



I heard you say underneath your breaths some

kind of prayers I heard

You say underneath your breath that you never

wanted, to feel this way about anybody else



Time enough for hard questions

Time enough for all our fears

Time is tougher than we both know yet

Time enough for tears



Time enough for being braver

Time enough I love this time of year,

Time is tough, its running away from us,

Time enough for tears
