Fallen Leaves

Down in the yonder valley where the roses fade and bloom
Buried my lovely Annie so lonesome in her tomb
The morning light was fading there I sat and grieved
With the thousands and thousands of fallen leaves

She died without a warning she didn't even make a sound
Although my heart is breaking in Gloryland she's bound
I'll live my life in mourning all along the trees
And the thousands and thousands of fallen leaves

The birds they sing so softly but lonesome is their song
Ever since she left me the nights have been so long
Lord don't you hear me calling, Lord won't you set me free
Like the thousands and thousands of fallen leaves

I'm torn and I'm broken, I'm lonesome and so blue
On the 14th day of April I was gonna marry you
But now you're dead and buried all along the trees
And the thousands and thousands of fallen leaves
And the thousands and thousands of fallen leaves
