Four Seasons Quilt by Rosie.
Love for all Seasons

I remember autumn, songbirds waiting on the wire...
sunlight breaking through the hazy air, kissing all the trees with fire...
and I just wanted to go walking and see you kicking up the leaves
The smell of woodsmoke in the evening creating lazy memories

CHORUS:
But I never did. Sometimes I think I never will,
'cos although time is quickly passing - seems for me it's standing still...
and I'm not looking for the reason why I feel the way I do...
I have a love for all seasons and need to spend them all with you...


I remember autumn..


And I remember Winter - how Christmas cut me to the core.
All I wanted was to start that day bright-eyed and smiling at your door..
I made a New Year resolution that I would love you rain or shine...
and when old midnight came I poured the wine and longed to raise your glass with mine...

CHORUS:
But I never did. Sometimes I think I never will,
'cos although time is quickly passing - seems for me it's standing still...
and I'm not looking for the reason why I feel the way I do...
I have a love for all seasons and need to spend them all with you...


I remember winter...


We never shared the sweet of rebirth of Spring, we never shared the sun on summer days...
We never took a picnic to the beach, walked hand in hand barefooted through the waves...
There were no trick or treats at Halloween, chestnuts or fireworks in November.
So many special days are hurrying by and I've so little to remember!


...the sweet rebirth of spring...


So many things I never said to you - so many words straight from the heart.
So many songs I meant to write that died 'cos we were always far apart.
So many letters that I meant to send - afraid you'd read behind the lines
and the simple phrase 'I am in love with you' you might have read too many times.

CHORUS:
So I never did. Sometimes I think I never will,
'cos although time is quickly passing - seems for me it's standing still...
and I'm not looking for the reason why I feel the way I do...
I have a love for all seasons and need to spend them all with you...
I have a love for all seasons - please let me spend them all with you...


...the sun on summer days...
