Our tears of sorrow
HAve left none for tomorrow
Open your eyes
And see through the guise.
This isn't a game
So quit trying to play
Autumn is gone
And our hearts weigh a ton
She's is in Heaven now
And she's up there flying around
Look back at the days
And think "What would Autumn say?"
She'd tell us to be happy
& to move on.
She'll see all us again another day
