Dying Embers
I watch an autumn leaf fall from the tree
A crimson flame against a twilight sky
I watch it flutter like a blazing butterfly
While I drift in thoughts of you and me
An autumn leaf
I watch it falling, falling, falling down
To lie in dying embers on the ground
And wonder, wonder, wonder why
Something that beautiful must die
