In the Early Winter Trees

From the bridge down below us
Lives a forest all in green
Where are the colors red and golden
In the early winter trees?
I don’t know why it’s hard to say what
We know is right and what is wrong
Can’t you see the season’s longer
Then it was the year before?
This song’s for you and me
With the time that’s left
Do something
In this other place you speak of
Up above the clouds and sky
What it is that you believe in
What’s the use if you deny
All of those you’ll leave behind and
Some of whom are flesh and bone
Will only know what open space was
From a picture book of long ago
This song’s for you and me
With what time is left
Do something
