Lyrics
“Autumn Leaves”
The leaves are falling in the back
That old season’s coming back
The wind is blowing through the trees
Blowing sticks and blowing leaves
Autumn leaves are brown and red
What was once alive is now dead
Beauty only needs to be beheld, nothing needs to be said
Autumn leaves are brown and red
Trees like red lollipops against the sky
Nature’s candy for the eye
The earth breathes deep and then it sighs
‘Cos each year life has to die
Autumn leaves are brown and red
What was once alive is now dead
Beauty only needs to be beheld, nothing needs to be said
Autumn leaves are brown and red
Look the sky is raining autumn leaves
Nature’s always got something up her sleeves
Close your eyes and forget your needs
The sky’s raining autumn leaves..yeah, hmm mm
Autumn leaves are brown and red
What was once alive is now dead
Beauty only needs to be beheld, nothing needs to be said
Autumn leaves are brown and red
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Na na na, na na na, na na na
Na na na, na na na, na na na
