about

"Autumn Sky" is a thoughtful horseback ride through the aspen trees in the mountains of Colorado. When you're in the high country in the fall, the sky has that crisp blue color--and I think I managed to capture a certain feeling with this song. The guitar leads really turned out well, very moving. It's about a feeling, like nostalgia, yearning, change, loss, sorrow...all mixed and indescribable.

lyrics

walk the sorrel 'round & through the trees
'neath the green & yellow quakin' leaves
cattle grazin' on the timothy
feel the chill upon the changin' breeze

smell the pine & all the evergreen
timberline is somethin' I can see
river rocks are in the mountain stream
now you know I never wanna leave

seasons come / days go by
autumn leaves / crisp blue skies
seasons come / days go by
fallin' leaves / autumn sky

from the aspen & the cottonwood
fallin' leaves are comin' down for good
they float along to where the river goes
& catch a ride to only heaven knows

chorus
