Lyrics Autumn Childhood - Forest

Autumn Childhood

Childhood came to me again
The dust and cobwebs left a pain
That ploughed the furrows of the dead
And burning woodsmoke filled my head
And autumn gold bend out my eyes
And leftme with no alibis
Naked as the stars I was
Lonely as the sky and lost
The fading light is treating still
And always dead and always will
And all my life is contained in this
The key to each and every wish
Cried… cried!
Yes I cried
Oh so tears the rolled down and down and down ‘til I died
Died… Died!
Yes I died, oh so Lordy they buried me
I went down and down ‘til I cried
Autumn spread the wings to fold me
Autumn spread the wings to hold me
And take me back
Everyone would be there
Their joy would fill the air
Everyone would be there
I could stay out at twelve
Turn around enjoying myself
I’d run off quick the smoke was sick, I was there
I laughed out night away
In the colors of the smoke and flame
The crackling wood, the noise was good, I was there
And everybody was there
Their laughter filled the air
Everybody was there
And everybody was there
Their laughter filled the air
Everybody was there
And Autumn returned
Autumn returned Oh… oh…
Childhood came to me again
The dust and cobwebs left a pain
That ploughed the furrows of the dead
And burning woodsmoke filled my head
Cried… cried!
Yes I cried
Oh so tears the rolled down and down and down ‘til I died
Died… Died!
Yes I died, oh so Lordy they buried me
I went down and down ‘til I cried
Autumn spread the wings to fold me
Autumn spread the wings to hold me
