Grand Funk Railroad - Winter & My Soul lyrics

I see a pear falling down from the tree.<br>Winter is coming and it's plain to see.<br>I spend the cold nights in my lonely room.<br>Is it the winter to which I am doomed? <br><br>Cold is the snow that will cover the ground.<br>I feel the presence of tears falling down.<br>Is it for pity or pain that I cry? <br>Color is gone and the grass it must die.<br><br>Winter brings sadness that empties my soul.<br>Life is too short for a dog growing old.<br>He used to follow and play at my heels.<br>Love from his heart I no longer can feel.
