Forever Autumn by the Moody Blues
The summer sun is fading as the year grows old
And darker days are drawing near
The winter winds will be much colder
Now you’re not here
I WATCH the birds fly south across the Autumn sky
And one by one they DISAPPEAR
I wish that I was flying WITH them
Now you’re not here
Like the SUN through the trees you came to love me
Like a leaf on the breeze you blew away
Through Autumn’s golden gown we used to kick our way
You always loved this time of year
Those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now
Cause you’re not here
Like the SUN through the trees you came to love me
Like a leaf on the breeze you blew away
A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes
As if to hide a lonely tear
My life will be forever Autumn
Cause you’re not here

I love what you’ve done with this. Beautiful and romantic.
I was mentally singing the song whilst looking at your pictures – lovely start to my morning:-)
Justin Hayward is a very talented performer.
LOVE the Moodies!
You illustrated the song beautifully!
Love the pics of the whole trees! Very nice.
Impressive take on this week’s challenge, well done!
Lovely shots to fit the words of the song. I love the 4th shot- golden!
i too love the idea of picking one tree, each a different color, illustrating fall beautifully!!
You did a fabulous job with this song. The fall trees are so pretty. Loving the red colors. Also the Grass and the rain on the car windshield went perfectly with the lyrics. Great post.
Those fronds in the backlight are really nice!
You really managed to catch the beautiful autumn colors!
hehe….now i know why i’m here….
but i was already here. well, i enjoyed my visit!!
Great photos-love the light caught in the grasses and the pretty shot from the park.
Nicely done – your images well suited to the lyrics. (and extra points to including the melody at the bottom – love me some Moody Blues).
What a collection of fantastic Autumn photos you have brought us to see! All beautiful BUT…that golden glow of Autumn shot….KUDOS! Thanks for joining in on Song-ography 🙂
