You sit and watch the changing lights
I wake you from your static life
The carousel that took you far,
Only spun you 'neath the stars
Only sees your crimson car
Only floats on gravels of tar
The summer mist dissolved to dust
All these gates just wait to rust
Its time to leave this carnival
Leaves detach and beckon fall
The fair has gone, the joy has left
The clowns departed with their theft
While solitude calls to depart
An autumn home awaits your heart
And if you still don't choose to go,
I'll have no other friend I know.
