The feelings grow older

* Inspired and derived from "hollow" by Yolkhead [Verse 1] The leaves begin to tremble As summer fades away A golden hue encroaches Upon the green of May A chill sets in the evening The days grow short and cold A bittersweet transition As nature's story's told [Chorus] The feelings grow older The sun sets The eyes exchange wonders Snow falls, birds sleep, time pours [Verse 2] A sieve runs through the mind And there are willows in the hollow vessel Dying left behind The green leaves turn to amber Drifting down, a seasonal change Colors fade, the chill sets in Nature's cycle rearranged [Chorus] The feelings grow older The sun sets The eyes exchange wonders Snow falls, birds sleep, time pours [Verse 3] Summer's warmth now distant Autumn winds whisper goodbye Memories like fallen petals Scatter, taking flight Bittersweet the transition As the year begins to die Yet in death, new life is waiting On the other side [Chorus] The feelings grow older The sun sets The eyes exchange wonders Snow falls, birds sleep, time pours [Verse 4] The cottage path lies dormant Blanketed in winter's cloak Birches bare, their leaves all fallen A season's final stroke But within the frozen silence Hope remains, a watchful spark Anticipating spring's rebirth When light will soon embark [Chorus] The feelings grow older The sun sets The eyes exchange wonders Snow falls, birds sleep, time pours [end] [Chorus] The feelings grow older The sun sets The eyes exchange wonders Snow falls, birds sleep, time pours [end]
