The Spirit of Autumn Past (Part II) - Mostly Autumn

At the ticking of the sun

On the green bellied mountains

I’m staring high in the sky

In the breeze I can taste

The fragrance of his moment

And I take a deep breath

Then the breeze picks up his bags

And blows on over my shoulder

That’s life, this life

We’re running out of time

But the time is still behind us

And tomorrow cuts the dawn that’s the law

And the spirit of the past

Still lingers in surroundings

I’m the owner of my mind and I know

The spirit of Autumn Past

Yesterday the sun shone on the party

And everybody shone at the sun

But now I’m alone and the sky turns grey

There’s a ghost across the wind

We’re running out of time

But the time is still behind us

And tomorrow cuts the dawn that’s the law

And the spirit of the past

Still lingers in surroundings

I’m the owner of my mind and I know

The spirit of Autumn Past

You and me and all of us

From the dying stars to the dreams of children

We’re all together now

We’re running out of time

But the time is still behind us

And tomorrow cuts the dawn that’s the law

And the spirit of the past

Still lingers in surroundings

I’m the owner of my mind and I know

We’re running out of time

But the time is still behind us

And tomorrow cuts the dawn that’s the law

And the spirit of the past

Will echo through your hallways

And the walls you leave behind

Will breath your life

The Spirit of autumn past
