I've been so tired

One child, I wait for room to spare

I can't wait child and write

It's all an empire long beheaded

I am grateful roaming

And so I long for your beacon riverside

Where I rest tonight

Down, autumn falls down

And I can hear the sound

All that for miles around it

Autumn falls down

Autumn falls down

And I just roam around

Oh, autumn never lands

Autumn goes down

Autumn falls down

All I can do to end it

I can never end it

Autumn falls down

Autumn goes down

And all I can do to end it

I can never end it

Autumn goes down

Autumn goes down
