Seasons Turn, Let Go
Acoustic folk ballad with a 1970s feel at about 80 BPM: a fingerpicked acoustic guitar and no drums, with a smoky, fragile female voice. Reflective and tender, sung in English, about watching the seasons turn and learning to let go.
Lyrics
The morning air has turned to glass,I watch the sparrows in the yard.Another summer come to pass,The grass is brown and breathing hard.Leaves will fall,The wind will blow away the light.Leaves will fall,I’m learning how to say goodnight.I kept your sweater in the hall,To catch the scent of cider tea.But dust is settling on it all,And you are somewhere far from me.Leaves will fall,The wind will blow away the light.Leaves will fall,I’m learning how to say goodnight.There’s no use in holding tight,To a sky that’s turning gray.The stars come early with the night,To lead the sun away.Leaves will fall,The wind will blow away the light.Leaves will fall,I’m learning how to say goodnight.Say goodnight.Let it go.Let it go.
