I won't talk at all but I'll go for a ride
I will go if you just let go do you want to go
Is it all because of the time I took your advice
I will go if you still want to go do you want to go
And I will show what you want me to show do you want to know
Until there's nothing left in the world to show you
Only go where I don't know do you want to go
You don't talk at all, but it's alright
Feeling bold but your nose is cold like it's make of snow
Is it all because of the time you took my advice
If you put your hand in my palm I won't let it go
Until there's nothing left in the world to make me
Summer steaks and summer stays too long
Autum comes and all of the sudden it's gone
Tiny birds sit patiently
Side by side on a wire
Darker days and leaves in shapes so true
Wind unfolds on nights so black their blue
Tiny birds fly silently
Side by side in the sky
Don't be sad when it's time to say goodnight
I'll be there to make sure that you sleep tight
I'm your friend when you need a friend
Until there's nothing left in the world to make you cry
