Changing Colors

You look at me with uncertainty

You look at me with urgency

You look at me with fear in your eyes

Like you're about to fall away

But don't be afraid to change your colors now

I've known you all summer, and you rose above it all

I see you hesitate to fall now

But it's a pretty good view from down here, too

And when the wind takes you, it takes me, too

When you change colors, I change mine, too

Try not to think, and I will try to

When you let go, I will let go, too

I knew you when you were green and small

You were like a feather on a wing, so long

You know I will miss you when you are gone

But don't be afraid if you just can't hang on

'Cause when the wind takes you, it takes me, too

When you change colors, I change mine, too

Try not to think and I will try, too

And when you let go, I will let go, too

The cold air is pushing hard on you

I know what you're saying; I can feel it, too

You'll go through changes, and I'll go through them too

But don't be afraid now, don't be afraid

'Cause when the wind takes you, it takes me, too

When you change colors, I change mine, too

Try not to think and I will try, too

And when you let go, I will let go, too
