Cold breeze, dead leaves Falling from exhausted trees With no one else but you and me to see We walked, while you talked Everything you've ever said Reflecting in my hollow head at once From seed, sunk We grew up like a tree trunk But your branch and mine They split and climbed apart But we still share a single heart If you peel away the bark The dim haze, of old days In sepia, the times return The love we shared, the lessons learned and lost But slowly We drifted in our own ways I couldn't say the moment when I looked and saw your branch had bent apart And our roots Are tangled up in tight loops Though the winds may go And try to blow us down We stand together here as one The darkest nights, the brightest sun No matter what the two of us become
