Songs from the Road

Wrote a song tonight. Maybe it'll help.
 
Leaves on the vine
Fragile as shells
I blink and see
Them tumble and fall
They fall away so fast.
 
Oh goodbye, oh goodbye
The willows all are weeping
Oh goodbye, oh goodbye,
The stars won’t shine tonight.
 
Oh helpless boys
Fragile as trust,
I see them fall
And crumble to dust -
No time to say goodbye.
 
Oh goodbye, oh goodbye
The willows all are weeping
Oh goodbye, oh goodbye,
The stars won’t shine tonight.
 
Oh fallen boys,
Too young to die,
You haunt my days,
And wander my dreams.
I have to say goodbye.
 
Oh goodbye, oh goodbye
The willows all are weeping
Oh goodbye, oh goodbye,
The stars won’t shine tonight.
