about

This song was inspired by one of the last conversations Jhett had with his grandfather during the autumn season in the mountains, and some advice that was given to him about the changing of the seasons.

lyrics

I am falling down and I’m floating away
From the only place that I’ve ever found
'Got the feeling that I ain’t far from the ground
Well the season came when I was blossoming
When that wind blew like hell
Before a drop of water ever fell
Never knew the story my life would tell

One day the rain finally came
But not before some family met their fate
And I learned to appreciate
Any water that came our way
Before I knew it the time of our youth had slipped away
And as these seasons change
Across this mountain's landscape
There's time to weather in the sun
Time to take refuge in the shade
But my son do not be afraid to turn the page

I want you to look out that window boy
And tell me what you see
How the golden leaves
Have replaced the green on them trees
So too, reflects the time of you and me
And as time takes its toll upon the young and the old
In the heat of the July sun
You will learn to appreciate the cold
And the blanket thats kept you warm will one day unfold

When that day comes
When you bear the fruit of what you’ve become
Do not be afraid or run
For there ain’t nothin' new under the sun
And mistakes only refine what you will become

I am falling down and I’m floating away
From the only place that I have ever found
'Got the feeling that I ain’t far from the ground
Ain’t it funny how I do not fear the ground
