waltz of the leaves

  1. billkilpatrick
    a waltz for vermont and new hampshire - because of the octave stretch (gasp) i had to sing this in "D" but the break is in "G":



    ... lyrics are as follows:

    in the autumn of the year
    you can find me here
    at the golden pageant of leaves
    i think of you and me
    and how we used to be
    before the sad gleaning of the trees

    on a warm september night
    in the pale moonlight
    we were waltzing and turning around
    but like the pretty colored leaves
    that danced upon the breeze
    our love withered on the ground

    if we could only live our lives again
    go back to the places we've been
    i'd be asking you please to say with me
    and dance the waltz of the leaves

    That's a great little song, Bill, really well constructed, and with the poignance and authority of an old jazz standard.
