GARDENS OF AUTUMN    
  Listen to sound clip
Hold tight --  
find a way to make it right  
Don’t let others dictate what you’ll do  
So many options, so many opinions  
You’ve got to live with what you’ll do  

And it’s not as easy as I thought it would be
But nothing worthwhile ever is  

On a plate so full of life-foods  
It’s easy to consume too much to chew  
Be careful what you choose to do  
After years of living on the lam  
She says goodbye to face up to her past  
To live a life of peace at last  

And it’s not that easy; she knew it wouldn’t be  
But nothing worthwhile ever is

I’VE FOUND AN ANSWER IN THE GARDENS OF AUTUMN
SHRILL TRUTH IN AN EAGLE’S CRY  
AND IN MOUNTAIN’S SONG OF CALLING  
ATOP ETERNAL VANTAGE POINTS  
WE STAND ABOVE THE DIN OF LOSS BELOW  
AND KEEP IT CLOSE TO HEART AS WE HEAD HOME  

Fortnight --  
time to finally get it right  
No more planning what you’re gonna do  
Words turn to action  
Alleviate distractions  
There’s light near the end  
You’re finally through  

And it’s proved as easy as you knew it would be  
As all that’s worthwhile ever is
