Lyrics Van Morrison

Van Morrison

Autumn Song

Leaves of brown they fall to the ground

And it's here, over there leaves around

Shut the door, dim the lights and relax

What is more, your desire or the facts

Pitter patter the rain falling down

Little glamor sun coming round

Take a walk when autumn comes to town

Little stroll past the house on the hill

Some more coal on the fire will do well

And in a week or two it'll be Halloween

Set the page and the stage for the scene

Little game the children will play

And as we watch them while time away

Look at me and take my breath away yeah

You'll be smiling eyes beguiling

And the song on the breeze

Will call my name out and your dream

Chestnuts roasting outside as you walk

With your love by your side

The old accordion man plays mellow and bright

And you go home in the crispness of the night

Little later friends will be along

And if you feel like joining the throng

Just might feel like singing Autumn song

Just may feel like singing Autumn song

You'll be smiling

Eyes beguiling

And the song on the breeze

Calls my name out in your dream

Chestnuts roasting outside

As you walk with your love by your side

And the old accordion plays mellow and bright

And you go home in the crispness of the night
