I can still hear the drummers
as the parade just passed by 
why in this troubled world do
so many people cry?

they say death is near every
corner do mind your feet death
is a cold face u don't want to meet

the cold damp rain is falling now
as i type i feel its going to be 
a chilly night i would hug you to
keep u warm but i can't keep u safe
from the harm

in the fall many colors explode like 
a star orange and yellow can be seen
from afar

can u knit me into your patterns of
 life i would promise to love you
more tonight

im going to close now for even my eyes
grow weary come keep me warm for the night
is dark and dreary.
