When Autumn Comes

When autumn comes and leaves obey
I think of you when spring was new
And fall was miles away
And when I close my eyes I see you
And I don’t feel the chill
When autumn comes… it's summer still
When autumn comes and wild geese fly
I wonder do you see them too
Across the restless sky
And does October catch you dreaming
Of Central Park in June
Or is love lost beneath the frost
Of autumn’s moon Summers by the sea
When the sun would linger till the moon was high
Days of you and me Underneath a sheltering sky
Did we move too fast for the glow of love to last
When autumn comes and summer goes
I will remember through November
What September knows
That nothing lasts forever and
Summer love moves on So when the leaves begin to change
I find it sad but never strange
That you are all I can recall
When autumn comes
