[Verse 1] Golden skies and rusted trees The wind hums quiet melodies Fields of grain and orchard fire The season sings as it retires [Verse 2] You came with sunlight in your hair With honeyed days and scented air But now the light begins to lean And shadows fall where green had been [Chorus] But oh, how full the silence feels Like hands that hold before they heal The beauty lies in soft goodbyes In leaves that fall, in low gray skies And I will stay… till summer ends And walk with you through golden ends [Verse 3] There’s no regret in fading light Just stories told in amber night The crows, they call, the apples bend And every path must find its end [Pre-Chorus] But in the still, the breath between The world becomes a deeper green [Chorus] And oh, how full the silence feels Like hands that hold before they heal The beauty lies in soft goodbyes In leaves that fall, in low gray skies And I will stay… till summer ends And walk with you through golden ends [Bridge – soft, spoken or sung gently] Season of mists, and mellow days The world prepares to turn away But in your hush, I hear a hymn Of what was full and always dim [Final Chorus – slow, warm fade] And oh, how full the silence feels Where every end begins to heal The beauty lives in what must die In gentle dusk, beneath the sky And I will stay… till autumn bends And hold your hand through golden ends
