Autumn leaves fall and are swept out of sight

The words that you said have gone too

Autumn leaves fall and are swept out of sight

So are the memories of love that we knew



The wind of forgetfulness blows then

Into the night of regret,

The song you would often sing

Is echoing, echoing yet



The falling leaves drift by the window

The autumn leaves of red and gold

I see your lips, the summer kisses

The sun-burned hands I used to hold



Since you went away, the days grow long

And soon, I'll hear old winter's song

But I'll miss you most of all, my darling,

When autumn leaves start to fall

When autumn leaves start to fall
