It is the autumn of our life When trees shed their covering And all their souls turn bare. But we must not be afraid. For time has come when we too Must face the reality of our life. We too must bare our souls, but Don’t ever be afraid, my love. What lies ahead for us, I often ask. Will our winter be cold and apart? Is it not up to you to answer me now? Or will you go on waiting till spring comes? A cold chill has penetrated our souls We seem to grow apart these days. Yet you can never leave me quite alone. You still smile and cuddle so. For time has come when we too Must face the reality of our life. We too must bare our souls, but Don’t ever be afraid, my love. Give me a treat and say you do. Together we can do great things. But still I see the fear in your eyes Still I can’t wait until spring arrives. For time has come when we too Must face the reality of our life. We too must bare our souls, but Don’t ever be afraid, my love. Don’t ever be afraid, my love. No don’t.
