Autumn Leaves

The air is getting crisp

As I wonder where you are.

We used to sing and laugh

As we danced beneath the stars.

I can smell wood burning

And it seems like long ago

Two crazy kids held hands

And walked down those worn back roads.

Leaves drifting slowly

And the colors of the trees

Take me back to your pickup truck,

Your hand resting on my knee.

Country music in the fall

Is something I can’t do,

Cause you aren’t here to change the words

And make me laugh at you.

Homemade ice cream when it’s cold,

What a crazy notion.

But it made me smile and made you laugh

For us to act like children.

Pumpkins carved in a dusty barn,

Meant more to you than me.

I wish I could rewind.

I just wish I could have seen.

I thought you’d always be here

To get lost and run wild with me.

But you were slowly drifting

Kind of like these autumn leaves.
