Favorite "Autumn" Songs





*Video*





Autumn Leaves - Eva Cassidy


The falling leaves
Drift by my window.
The falling leaves of red and gold.

I see your lips,
the summer kisses,
the sunburned hands I used to hold.

Since you went away
the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter song
But i miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Since you went away
the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter song
But i miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall



*Video*





September Song - Sarah Vaughn


When you meet with the young men
Early in spring
They court you in song and rhyme
They woo you with songs and a clover ring

But if you examine the goods they bring
They have little to offer but the songs they sing
And a plentiful waste of time of day
A plentiful waste of time

Oh, it's a long, long while
From May to December
But the days grow short
When you reach September
And the autumn weather
Turns the leaves to flame
One hasn't got time
For the waiting game

Oh, the days dwindle down
To a precious few
September
November

And these few precious days
I'll spend with you
These precious days
I'll spend with you

A very pleasant good Friday morning to everyone at the Canteen and to all our military at home and abroad. Thanks for your service to our country.

((HUGS))Good morning, Ladies. Did some walking with Bo at the lake yesterday. We'll see what today holds for us.

Good morning/afternoon/evening/night Troops, wherever you are.

Thank you for doing your part to help keep all of us free and safe.

Thanks, unique, for the pastries.

Coffee is always on........

How about a donut?

Cookies?

Veggies?

Sandwich?

Morning Beachie!

Wow, it's September already, mornings are cooler, kids are back in school; it'll be Christmas before you know it/sheesh.

I'm working a few hours today and tomorrow and then will have my 3 days off. Nothing planned as yet, hope to hang out with son at some point.

Woo-Hoo, what, you have about 2-3 weeks left? Have you got a replacement yet? Weekend plans?

See you next week!

Good morning Pro ((HUGS))

Wish it were cooler. It’s been in the 90s; will go down to 80s for the weekend, but then back up. Hey, it’s supposed to be September and cooler!

I’ve done a few chores and now heading outside to wash/wax my car which really, really needs it.

We have to candidates that the boss is trying to decide on. I hope he has made a decision by Monday; we really need to start moving on this. If he chooses the first one we interviewed, I think we may have a chance to transition without too much disruption.

Have plans for most of the weekend, but they are subject to change, given my mood. hehe

We are trying to have a pool day before the close it for the winter. Maybe a Walmart run on Monday morning. Somewhere in there, hubby and I will go over our budget one more time so I can figure the amount of money I need to bring in to pay bills. Dang, Wall Street is killing my 401k. UGH!

Hope you get to hang out with son-boy. Close enough to a beach?

Have fabulicious FRiday and coolicious weekend.

“Autumn Song” Van Morrison

Leaves of brown they fall to the ground
And it’s here, over there leaves around
Shut the door, dim the lights and relax
What is more, your desire or the facts

Pitter patter the rain falling down
Little glamor sun coming round
Take a walk when autumn comes to town

Little stroll past the house on the hill
Some more coal on the fire will do well
And in a week or two it’ll be Halloween
Set the page and the stage for the scene

Little game the children will play
And as we watch them while time away
Look at me and take my breath away yeah

You’ll be smiling eyes beguilding
And the song on the breeze
Will call my name out and your dream

Chestnuts roasting outside as you walk
With your love by your side
The old accordion man plays mellow and bright
And you go home in the crispness of the night

Little later friends will be along
And if you feel like joining the throng
Just might feel like singing Autumn song
Just may feel like singing Autumn song

You’ll be smiling
Eyes beguilding
And the song on the breeze
Calls my name out in your dream

Chestnuts roasting outside
As you walk with your love by your side
And the old accordion plays mellow and bright
And you go home in the crispness of the night

Gooood FRIDAY morning, Early Birds!
Have you got fun plans for the weekend?
It's a holiday...do you have a long weekend?

Y'all have a GREAT day!
