SOON IS SLIPPING AWAY
Paroles et musique: Tony Macaulay, 1969

When crinkled brown leaves of autumn

Lay soft upon the ground

Waiting for the winter wind

To blow them all around

I can hear your last words

As you turned across the hill

Grieve you not, the way you do

I'll be home with you, soon

But soon is slipping away my love

Like a shadow on a windy sea

I was hoping that I'd hear you say by now

You're coming back to me

Soon is slipping away my sweet

And there's still not a word to say

I was hoping that I'd hear you cry my love

You're coming back to stay

Remember summers sapwood

That burns now in my grate

With flicker flames that seem to say

Unwise you are to wait

I recall your last words

As you walked into the sun

Grieve you not, the way you do

I'll be home with you, soon

But soon is slipping away my love

Like a shadow on a windy sea

I was hoping that I'd hear you say by now

You're coming back to me

Soon is slipping away my sweet

And there's still not a word to say

I was hoping that I'd hear you cry my love

You're coming home to stay
