lyrics

East wind turns the trees to red and gold
Wild geese know they're homeward bound
You can feel their wings aching
For a journey to be taken
Apple tree lays its burden to the ground

Now a frost lays on the hawthorn
Shrouding rusted jewels upon her boughs
The robin darts between oaks and larch.
Blackbird calls the last notes on the Autumn

After the show where do we run to?
Our broken nights must come to day
Before this ends I'll turn my collar to the wind
All night must come to day in the end

A winter's sky to cast a shadow
Shorter than the hours in the day
Dawn is past breaking
Soon daylight is fading
New life hangs upon a change in the breeze

Cuckoo calls to break the silence
Of a hundred muted days
And if the wind is right
It'll make that call take flight
So make those notes be the the first of the spring

May that first band of gold
Free these lands from the cold
May the first rains of April Wash away these winter bones
