the autumn song

lyrics:Kleven music:Skagnes

I don't know, but I've been told
At the rainbow's end we will find gold
Way beneath this autumn sky,
There's a better world for you and I

Maybe I'm the only one,
But I don't have the urge to seek what's gone
You will always find me here
Even when the sunrays disappear

I can't stop the changing of the seasons
I can't turn the circling of the sun

I don't know, but it's been said
Fall is only summer painted red
Hard to tell the truth from lies
Shadows are just sunshine in disguise

I can't stop the changing of the seasons
I can't turn the circling of the sun

I cannot stop
I cannot change
I cannot turn


People talk, but this I know:
Soon the merry raindrops turn to snow
I got shelter from the storm
Memories remain to keep me warm

I can't stop the changing of the seasons
I can't turn the circling of the sun
Somehow I don't need no other reasons
Somehow we will always be outrun
by the sun
