A multi-layered song about how love changes in a long-term relationship, arranged with three counter-point lines played by the cello, accordion and acoustic guitar.
Lyrics
AUTUMN LOVE
Music/Lyrics: P. Fridhill/ J. Hoffmann
The pendule slows
Devotion grows
Sugar in my bowl
Will time reduce the flow?
Oh sorrow, lame and slow.
Of rivers lost,
and wells run dry
My garden soon will grow
consolation
for hungry hearts
The cries of joy
that keep us together
The angry love
The stormy wheather
I’ll be yours for ever
Chronology
Biology
Sugar is sweet, blood is thick
juices drip.
Desire is quick as rain
The streets are filled with glow,
as we’re running down
the path of life
The last few steps are slow
Closer now,
the path soon ends
The hand in glove
our being together
The autumn love
Its sunny wheather
I am yours for ever
