Every season
has its reasons why
That don’t make it
any easier tonight
So come on down
to the river’s side with me
Walk on the water
all the way out to sea
The wheel that turns tonight
can heal the wounds you hide
Come stand beneath the light
and celebrate this life
I saw Orion
on the horizon’s edge
The Perseids were
falling down like glass
The logs are stacked up
ahead of winter’s snow
It’s almost midnight
time for us to go
The wheel that turns tonight
can heal the wounds you hide
Come stand beneath the light
and celebrate this life
We spent the whole night waiting
For the moment you'd arrive
Saw you on the screen
Your heart beating before our eyes
We hoped to meet you here
In summer time, high July
Hold you in our arms
Welcome you into our lives
The sun is rising soon
Now we must be heading home
Listen to these words
the only song I’ve ever known
The wheel that turns tonight
can heal the wounds you hide
Come stand beneath the light
and celebrate this life
Cause every season
has its reasons why

A Thousand Autumns
05:19

Our boat was anchored in the bay
Copper, silks, and gold to trade
I wandered through the dusty streets
the wooden buildings bleached
By the salt air of the sea
Separating me from you
A thousand autumns passed me by
like a ship built in a glass
Cherry blossoms bloomed than fell
down to the ground like ashes
The ocean gate was closed
Nine years since I’ve been home
There are some days when I miss you still
but our old life seems so long ago
Decades past since we rung the bell
Many friends I’ve had now buried in the ground
I know you will never meet my son
But you would’ve loved the man that he’s become
He’s older now than the day i left
but still too young for my regrets
And though you may be gone
Our love still lingers on
