as the leaves begin to fall...

My drive down this road,

I don't know where it goes.

The leaves are changing,

and beginning to fall. 

On this drive I think of you.

All your laughter.

Your smile.

Your tears.

I miss you.

But the leaves still change, 

Summer turns into Fall.

And life goes on...

I still think of you.

All the things you'll never get to do.

All the memories we'll never get to make.

And still on this drive,

The leaves change, and fall

From green, then yellow,

Gold, and red.

These colors you'll never get to see.

You'll never get to hear the whispers of the wind,

And the stories nature has to tell.

But still I drive on;

Slow and peaceful.

Looking around at the mountain and country side around me

Thinking how much you would love this. 

No destination set.

No direction of travel.

Just the road and the radio.

The life around me is changing out of my control

and all I know to do it just let it go.

Winding and turning like this pavement I follow.

Still the leaves change and fall.

This road never ending.

and life goes on 

As I drive, missing you, and seeing what you'll never see.
