Autumn Leaves

Have you ever heard the tales of autumn from the north
Where the wild wind washes away your worth
All the dry leaves crunch under each step
And the breeze reminds you of this harmony

Wrapped up in a cozy blanket staring at the wall
Taking in the fleeting moment, thinking of it all
The twigs and branches that are scattered upon the ground
Represent a fractured memory that you have found

I'm a leaf
Dreaming bout the day I'll fall
The colour thief
Steals the green right off it all

Why didn't anyone tell me that autumn falls too fast
I want to enjoy the feel of walking with the wind pushing at my back
Swirling leaves fall from on high to bring their melancholy
Rake in a pile of orange bliss to make a melody
From these autumn leaves

Foggy mornings full of empty minds and teeming souls
Abundant with a certain peace that fills an empty hole
Some nostalgia from the auburn seasons of the past
I can't wait a year, I wish the fall could last

Frosted breath but hearts a-brimming with hope
Brand new harvest and the promise of the coming snow
The warmth a sweater brings to overflow your heart
Never wanting to be more than an arm apart

I'm a leaf
Dreaming bout the day I'll fall
The colour thief
Steals the green right off it all

Why didn't anyone tell me that autumn falls too fast
I want to enjoy the feel of walking with the wind pushing at my back
Swirling leaves fall from on high to bring their melancholy
Rake in a pile of orange bliss to make a melody
From these autumn leaves

Curl up on a bench with pumpkin spice nostalgia
This euphoric feeling will never last
Even when days are grey
And your heart is swollen
Voice the unheard whimsy from your soul

I'm a leaf
Dreaming bout the day I'll fall
The colour thief
Steals the green right off it all

Why didn't anyone tell me that autumn falls too fast
I want to enjoy the feel of walking with the wind pushing at my back
Swirling leaves fall from on high to bring their melancholy
Rake in a pile of orange bliss to make a melody
From these autumn leaves
