The falling leaves drift by my window
The falling leaves of red and gold
I see your lips the summer kisses
The sunburned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Since you went away the days grow long
And soon I'll hear old winter's song
But I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

I miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

    General Comment:Its about an amzing summer, a summer two lovers shared but never thought they would. And how the other has selfishly left them. It's mourning for the times they shared, but knowing they will never come back. Its moving on, but one thing can bring so many memories. Like the leaves that seem to fall so soon each year.
