Falling Leaves

Falling Leaves

Falling leaves, touching the ground softly;
Why can’t love be more like falling leaves?
But when they fell on me,
They knock me off my feet,
And all I could see was you leaving me;
And falling leaves.

Falling leaves, falling hard on me,
Why is love mean, like falling leaves?
And all I can see is you leaving me,
And falling leaves.

Falling leaves
Touching the ground softly
Why can’t love be
More like falling leaves.
                 ***
