The Fields of Summar

Another cold and rainy afternoon The shadows deepen in this empty room All our promises have some untrue The fields of summer where we used to play The icy blast of winter Stole away There's nothing left to say Nothing left to do As we sit and watch love die On this cold and empty day And the leaves fall from the sky I heard a voice inside me say "You ain't gonna make it this way It's time to stop this lying Something beautiful is dying You've got to face it some day ..." The mirror stands amidst this disarray Our faded lives within its depths portrayed Tear down the walls my love Let the light shine in These swelling waves of sorrow fill my soul With bitterness and bile As black as coal Let's drink to Destiny We could never win As we sit and watch love die On this cold and empty day And the leaves fall from the sky I heard a voice inside me say "You ain't gonna make it anyway It's time to stop this crying The light of love is dying And all the fields of summer fade away ..." And all the fields of summer fade away And all the fields of summer fade away And all the fields of summer fade away And all the fields of summer fade away
