When Autumn Comes
When Autumn comes and visits me
And Summers end I can foresee
Remaining years are on the wane
Cherished days won't come again
My shackles soon set free
Life like the deciduous tree
Watches it's adornment flee
And embraces falls refrain
When Autumn comes
When I respond to the decree
And feel the chill wash over me
When I no longer can remain
My life no longer can sustain
I'll with my soul to heaven flee
When Autumn comes
