Lyrics:

Autumn leaves are falling 'round us

Time to gather all those many thoughts

Of all the things that might have been



Or gained at such a cost

For some of us there's endless hoping



For some of us craziness too

Holding on to better reasons

Works for me and you, you know it's true



And when the stakes are higher

Never play with fire



Leave it alone



I wandered through a country churchyard

And wandered what kind of life they led

Walked into a castle ruin



Of gentry that had fled

For some of them they had endless hoping

For some of them crazy too



Holding on to better reasons



We'll never truly know

Those trees will tumble down

On a stormy day



And those leaves will fade away, fade away



The autumn leaves are falling 'round us

I'm here to gather all my many thoughts

Of all the things that might have been



As the ground has turned to frost



Leaves are falling, Autumn leaves are falling...
