Justin Hayward - Forever Autumn (1978) · Justin Hayward Performs Forever Autumn After Telling the Story Behind It Plaza Live Orlando (3 February 2023) The summer sun is fading as the year grows old The darker days are drawing near The winter winds will be much colder Now you're not here. I watch the birds fly south across the autumn sky And one by one, they disappear I wish that I was flying with them Now you're not here. Like the sun through the trees You came to love me Like a leaf on a breeze You blew away. Through autumn's golden gown We used to kick our way You always loved this time of year Those fallеn leaves lie undisturbеd now Cause you're not here. The gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes As if to hide a lonely tear My life will be forever autumn Now you're not here. Part-Time Love (1978) Written for music by Elton John ·  Video performance Part-time love is bringin' me down 'Cause I just can't get it started with you, my love Did I hear you sayin' that I'm too hard-hearted Wipe those stars from your eyes And you'll get quite a surprise Because you'll see everybody's got a part-time love. Don't tell me what to do When you been doin' it too Because you, me and everybody's got a part-time love. I'm waitin', I'm waitin' all the time And it's gettin' so frustratin' Love, well it ain't no crime Because you, me and everybody needs a part-time love. Blue Eyes (1982) Written for music by Elton John · Video performance Blue eyes Baby's got blue eyes Like a deep, blue sea On a blue, blue day. Blue eyes, holdin' back the tears Holdin' back the pain Baby's got blue eyes And she's alone again. Blue eyes, laughin' in the sun Laughin' in the rain Baby's got blue eyes And I am home, and I am home again.
