AUTUMN SUN

[Verse 1]
Autumn sun in skies of blue
Summer's warmth is fading through
We danced where golden leaves would fall
Back when love had it all
I sang heart tunes in bloom-filled days
Now your touch feels far away

[Pre-Chorus]
But I still feel the glow
When the wind begins to blow

[Chorus]
So don’t run, just rest
Recall the moments we loved best
In the fleeting light
We held the night
Before the cold began
Yeah, we were fire and flame
Before it slipped through our hands
Autumn sun, don’t say we’re done
We’ve only just begun

[Verse 2]
Now I wade through October rain
Chasing echoes, chasing names
Dreams once painted in our sky
Still shimmer in my eyes
I know time can feel unkind
But girl, you're still mine

[Pre-Chorus]
If you catch a clue
In this fading view

[Chorus]
Then don’t run, just rest
Recall the moments we loved best
In the fleeting light
We held the night
Before the cold began
Yeah, we were fire and flame
Before it slipped through our hands
Autumn sun, don’t say we’re done
We’ve only just begun

[Bridge – soaring & emotional]
It’s not goodbye, just a softer glow
Let your colors melt into my soul
This ain’t the end of me and you
It's just a sky turning brand new

[Final Chorus – with extra lift]
So don’t run, just rest
Let love outshine regret
Let evening fall
We’ll have it all
When morning warms our skin
You’ll rise again, not on your own
But with me—never alone
A brilliant hue, an orange made of two
Yeah, true love burns right through
Autumn sun, I’m still crazy
Still crazy in love with you

[Outro – soft, intimate]
Autumn sun… in skies of blue
Summer’s gone, but not my tune
Yeah, I’m still crazy…
In love with you
