Lyrics
Sweet smell of flowers on a warm summer evening
Red sunset ends a honey dappled day
Comes on a breeze that tickles through the wind chimes
Here for a moment then its gone away
Fast train screams through the station
Shatters the silence as it roars round the bend
Autumn leaves frenzied in the slipstream
Here just a moment then its gone again
Ain't it funny how time just seems to slip on by
Reach out to touch and it's gone in the wink of an eye
Love can comfort like the fragrance of that soft summer breeze
Love can scare you like that fast moving train
Love can save you, it can leave you standing lonely
Here one day and gone like the wind
