The fall has just begun
Walking hand in hand
Under an Indian summer sun
She is in love with me
And I am in love with her
As much as one can be
We stop to kiss awhile
Tease with each other
Her eyes reflect my smile
On a quiet street
Surrounded by maple leaves
With the skies below our feet

I dreamt I was awake
What a lovely mistake

Could this feeling last?
Prolong the present
Please let there be no past
All I ask from life
Is some mutual adoration
To ease the constant strife
Though my castle in Spain fell apart
Crumbling into dust
Like a depressing piece of art
I woke up feeling blind
Cursing the cobwebs
Of my subliminal mind

But what a lovely mistake to make
Next time I won't awake
Let's dwell in our ceaseless state
This time I won't awake
