In my garden, among the trees

runs a river, ten foot deep

in it lies a hundred tears

In my garden, among the trees

In my dreams, among the ruins

of past and present fears and lies.

I dance on air, among the trees

In my dreams, among the ruins

Swallow all my well meant faults

let me from the darkness vault

I am fading, paint me back

resembling shadow black

As the cold veil of white erases every trace

the raptured remnants of summer leaves

Gone without a single word or phrase

are all the colored autumn leaves

In my ashes dwells no soul

it has flown to behold

Father, son, young and old

In my ashes dwells no soul

In forever I am tall

flowers breathe, large and small

feed on water, feed on all

In forever I am tall

Pride yourself to have me known

I am in the picture shown

Resembling shadow tall

not fading, I am all
