When an early autumn walks the land
and chills the breeze
And touches with her hand
the summer trees
Perhaps you'll understand
what memories I own
There's a dance pavilion in the rain
all shuttered down
A winding country lane
all russet brown
A frosty window pane
shows me a town grown lonely
That spring of ours that started
so April hearted
Seemed made for just a boy and girl
I never dreamed, did you,
any fall could come in view so early, early
May I ask you, Darling, if you care,
please let me know
I'll meet you anywhere,
I miss you so
Let's never have to share
another early autumn.
