Witness

Leaves too young to fall

Wonder if they've heard it all

Hoping just to breeze through

Panes we raised too low

Sometimes it would get so cold

Wake me like you used to

Letting in the chill again

Every now and then

Just too close to miss

Now I'm left with only this

Moment I can see you

Talking as we'd milk it out

The sun was slowing down

Setting off still lost one night

How could we have been surprised

By things that only we knew

Waiting though you couldn't stay

Keeping little ones awake

Then finally coming from your room

Calling to the passing through
