Amber Seasons

Lyrics

Amber light spilling down the hall
Watching amber leaves begin to fall
Steam rising up from a cinnamon mug
Knit sweater wrapped in a heavy hug
Cool crisp breeze cutting through the shade
Chasing down the memories summer made
Steps crunch soft on the amber street
Piano keys playing so slow and sweet
Chorus
Golden hour, golden leaves
Drifting down off the sleepy trees
Wool socks, quiet mind, pumpkin spice
Chilled air feeling so still and nice
Fall is folding in, soft and deep
Lulling the busy world right to sleep
Verse 2
Overcast skies in a shade of slate
No need to hurry, no place to be late
Fading sunlight painting the floor
A quiet dusk knocking at the door
Bare branches silhouetted up high
Smokey wooddrift rising to the sky
Lean your head back, let the tempo slow
Watching the amber seasons glow
Bridge
Sample snippet (warm, tape-saturated vocal filter):
"Summer's gone... let the evening in..."
Gentle piano chords, mellow and low
Holding onto moments as the shadows grow
Nothing to fix, nothing left to prove
Just sinking into autumn's cozy groove
Chorus
Golden hour, golden leaves
Drifting down off the sleepy trees
Wool socks, quiet mind, pumpkin spice
Chilled air feeling so still and nice
Fall is folding in, soft and deep
Lulling the busy world right to sleep
Outro
(Beat slowly drops out, leaving only a gentle, lingering piano melody)
Cool breeze... falling leaves...
Sleepy autumn... stay awhile...
(Wind sound fades out; needle lifts from the vinyl with a soft click)
