You, you make the angels cry
You, and every word you speak
You are the wing of a bird that's trying to fly around the world
You make the roses feel ashamed
And your eyes make the tide rise and rise
How long? How long is it left to watch the sun rise?
Rise and set. Summer turns to fall
How, how much? How much is your heart going to take?
If your soul's a season
Fall turns to winter still
You, you make every cloud cry
You let every plant die
You make every child smile and take all the life at once
You lay the haze down on her face
And fill the world with your grace
How long? How long is it left to watch the sun rise?
Rise and set. Summer turns to fall
How, how much? How much is your heart going to take?
How long? How long?
Fall turns to winter still
You, you make the angels cry
You, and every word you speak
And you are the wing of a bird that's trying to fly around the world
You make the roses feel ashamed
And your eyes make the tide rise and rise
How long? How long is it left to watch the sun rise?
Rise and set. Summer turns to fall
How, how much? How much is your heart going to take?
If your heart's a season
Summer turns to fall
