Spring and Fall


I’ve made a thousand promises each and every day

That I am a changed man, in every single way

And I swear It will be different, I’ll do better

Its not the same anymore

I learned my lesson I swear to god,

If I hurt you

I could never forgive myself

Never live with myself

The troubles we’ve seen would seem so small

If you were harmed by me at all

And I don’t think I could go on

If because of me, you want to be gone.

The spring, the summer, the sun, the rain

Would never to me seem the same again

And the world may turn to spring

But I wouldn’t, couldn’t, feel a thing

Knowing that fall had come before

Because you wouldn’t come anymore.
