Leaves are falling green and gold Changing of the season Safe and warm against the cold Within our house new life unfolds These are the promised days From cradle to the grave This is the special time In which the light will shine Welcome to the human world Filled with love and hatred Some are rich and some are poor Unto this world our child is born These are the promised days From cradle to the grave This is the special time In which the light will shine He's coming She's coming Someone to build a new world for us He's coming She's coming To keep the promise in all of us Heed the warning wind that blows Ignorance and evil Rapes the harvest that we sow Crush the flower where it grows These are the promised days From cradle to the grave This is the special time In which the light will shine
