The hawk and the sparrow flew up together  Though the sparrow was small and the hawk on a tether  Wingtip wingtip, feather to feather  All in the fall with winter coming on  All in the fall with winter coming on  He was dark as a blanket of snow  She was bright as the lightning's shadow  He shook yes, she nodded no  All in the fall with winter coming on  All in the fall with winter coming on  The leaves fell down and the wind blew stiff  They had their tumble and they had their tiff  And they both sang a love song that started with "If..."  All in the fall with winter coming on  All in the fall with winter coming on  It was breasts and hands and flanks and thighs  Everyone around had to shield their eyes  And we called in the cops at the sound of their cries  All in the fall with winter coming on  All in the fall with winter coming on  And the sun and the moon hung there in the sky  Till no one could tell day from night  And the harvest piled up higher than high  All in the fall with winter coming on  All in the fall with winter coming on  Copyright 1995, Hugh Blumenfeld / Hydrogen Jukebox Music
