V5.5

[Intro] Season of mists, mellow gold, Hold the sun before it grows old. [Verse 1] The orchard leans with ripened light, The fields are warm, the day is bright. The bees come home with heavy wings, And every vine remembers spring. [Pre-Chorus] Do not hurry, gentle year, Rest your head while love is near. All that blooms must slowly part, But sweetness gathers in the heart. [Chorus] Season of mists, stay with me, Golden breath on every tree. Let the river, soft and slow, Teach my restless heart to know. Season of songs at closing day, Nothing beautiful goes away. It only turns, it only bends, And comes as light again. [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 2] The swallows write across the sky, The clouds are calm and passing by. The reaper rests beside the grain, And silence ripens after rain. [Bridge] Where are the songs of springtime now? They live in fruit and bending bough. They live in every fading flame That keeps the warmth and changes name. [Chorus] Season of mists, stay with me, Golden breath on every tree. Let the river, soft and slow, Teach my restless heart to know. Season of songs at closing day, Nothing beautiful goes away. It only turns, it only bends, And comes as light again. [Outro] Season of mists, mellow gold, Hold my heart before the cold.
