Much Too Late So Soon

We are now fallen much too late so soon
But alas it was not nearly so late
Remembering a time we were immune

And as gentle passions begin to swoon
As to speak our fluid stance of unknown fate
We are now fallen much too late so soon

Watching the sunset paint the sky maroon
When faced with love we would not hesitate
Remembering a time we were immune

And raises the fog to hide the sultry moon
Hiding the stars illuminating state
We are now fallen much too late so soon

While crickets fiddle us a somber tune
When there was not a time for us to hate
Remembering a time we were immune

But somehow our strong oak is now but hewn
This yesterday magic rests in the grate
Remembering a time we were immune
We are now fallen much too late so soon
