The Final Fly

 

The days are getting shorter

It’s a bitter dying light

As the final fly of summer

Takes a lonely winter flight

The things that once were lively

Are slowly finding death

The visitors are leaving

On the next train headed west

the coming days loom frigid

For the warmth forsaken soul

The closing theme is playing

In the lonely winter cold

Maybe some fine morning

Spring will come again

Till then darkness rules the winter

Goodbye to you my friend
