"Autumn" lyrics - CALIGULA'S HORSE

You were leading us into autumn
You, the dream of the hopeful
You were here to stay
And you'll soon see that yours was the strong heart
From youth to open arms
Embrace all the change that was coming

[Refrain:]
And all we thought we knew for all of yesterday
We were only children
The way forward, through
And all we thought we knew

You were dreamed by love into the world
Truth, for the last time I shed my skin and breathe in the colour

[Refrain:]
And all we thought we knew for all of yesterday
We were only human
The way forward, through
And all we thought we knew
We knew

[Chorus:]
You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
Before the change is through
Change is coming
When all I am is you

[Bridge:]
Leading time to river's toil as the hollow takes shape
Leading myth to mother soil
Being made and unmade
Oh, and change has always been this way
Change has always been this way
As light is ever sent over rubble to reign
The all will always end where the nothingness stays
Oh, and change was always on its way
Change has always been this way
(Change, the mother)
Nothing falls into stillness
Time is the motion
(Change, the mother)
In the sum of our silence
Time waits for no one

[Pre-Chorus:]
So who am I to stay the colours as they change?
To call for silence in my pride
And bring stillness to sunrise?

[Chorus:]
You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
Before the change is through
(Change is coming)
When all I am is you
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
You
You were leading us into autumn
Ever forward
And I will wait ahead
(Change is coming)
To stand and mark the way
