Off-guard......



You caught me a little off guard today
As I was walking by
I paused; for your gaze, over-powering and gray
Suddenly captured my eye
And the tear in your sad eyes seemed to say
Good-bye sweet summer, good-bye

You caught me a little off-guard today
The trembling in your sigh
Wove through the limbs, barren and gray
A sad soliloquy
As the landscape joined in the solemn lay
Goodbye, sweet summer, good-bye

You caught me a little off-guard today
I thought I was over you
There is a certain raw beauty in gray
That cannot be found in blue
You caught me a little off guard today
As you bid summer adieu
