Lyrics

Let's read the trees and their autumn leaves
As they fall like a dress undone
At the end of summers, love will find lovers
Who need the shadow of a winter's sun

Don't tell me you're leaving
We can hide in the evening
It's getting darker than it should
If we read the leaves as they blow in the breeze
Would it stop us now, my love?

Time enough for hard questions, time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet – time enough for tears

The moon is milk and the sky where it's spilt, it's magic
And we all need to believe that we can wake in the dream
It's not as hard as it seems - you know, it's harder to leave

Time enough for being braver, time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet – time enough for tears

I heard you say underneath your breath some kind of prayer
I heard you say underneath your breath
That you never wanna feel this way about anybody else

Time enough for hard questions, time enough for all our fears
Time, it's tougher than we both know yet – time enough for tears

Time enough for being braver, time enough – I love this time of year
Time, it's tough, it's running away from us – time enough for tears

Time enough..
(I know, I know...)
(It's ok, it's ok...)
