homesick (live)

The leaves are falling So peacefully today The ground's a sea of auburn And the skies are far from gray The cozy smells of Autumn Start to softly kiss his face Then he's snapped back to reality When the real world bares it's ugly teeth again Songbirds call In a desperate search For one another As the gentle winds of fall Send shivers Down shoulders Of lovers They hold each other close Each longing for The warmth of the other But she's far away right now And he's just wishing he could tell her that he loves her The Sun's falling behind the trees And teardrops fill his eyes As he thinks of all he cannot see Though she's Clear as day inside his mind He stares into the burning horizon Knowing he will be just fine Cause she's far away right now But in a few short months she'll be there at his side
