Jackson C. Frank
Milk and Honey
[Nick speaking]
Can't think of any other songs to do
What could I do, what would be interesting
[Verse 1]
Gold and silver is the autumn
Soft and tender are her skies
Yes and no are the answers
Written in my true love's eyes
[Verse 2]
Autumn's leaving and winter's coming
I think that I'll be moving along
I've got to leave her and find another
I've got to sing my heart's true song
[Verse 3]
Round and round the burning circle
All the seasons: one, two, and three
Autumn leaves and then there winter
Spring is born and wanders free
[Verse 4]
Gold and silver burns my autumns
All too soon they'd fade and die
And then I'd know, there'd be no others
Milk and honey were their lies
