Autumn - Peter Hammill[00:00:00]
So here we are[00:00:00]
Alone[00:00:03]
Our children have grown up and moved away[00:00:07]
Living their own lives[00:00:17]
They say[00:00:20]
It all seems very strange[00:00:24]
To me[00:00:28]
I don't understand their ways[00:00:31]
Our children amaze me all the time[00:00:36]
And I often wonder why they make me feel[00:00:45]
So sad[00:00:50]
And suddenly old[00:00:54]
Now we're left with an empty home[00:00:59]
From our nest all the birds have flown for foreign skies[00:01:05]
We're discarded of no further use[00:01:11]
Though we gave our kids all our youth and all our live[00:01:17]
We really tried[00:01:24]
Now there's only my wife and me[00:01:37]
We used to have a family[00:01:42]
Now that's gone[00:01:46]
And only memories linger on[00:01:51]
It all seems very wrong to me[00:01:56]
To our sorrow they were quite deaf[00:02:05]
And as soon as they could they left us to our tears[00:02:10]
We always tried to teach what was good[00:02:16]
Yes we gave our kids all we could through all the years[00:02:21]
So here we are at last[00:02:43]
The time has gone so fast and so have my dreams[00:02:49]
I simply don't know what it all means[00:02:58]
This pointless passage through the night[00:03:03]
This autumn time this walk upon the water[00:03:06]
I wonder how long[00:03:19]
It will be till this song[00:03:23]
Is sung by our own sons and daughters[00:03:29]
