Crescent Noon

Carpenters · Close To You/now & Then [2009]

green september burned to october brown

bare november led to decembers frozen ground

the seasons stumbled round our drifting lives are bound to a falling

crescent noon



feather clouds cry a vale of tears to earth

morning breaks and no one sees a quiet mountain bird

dressed in a brand new day the sun is on its way

to a falling crescent noon



somewhere in a fairy tale forest lies

one

answer that is waiting to be heard



you and i were born like the breaking day

all our seasons all our green septembers burn away

slowly well fade into the sea of midnight blue

and the falling crecent noon
