(chorus)
The leaves were down
Long before the autumn winds arrived
The leaves were down
Long before the autumn winds arrived
Why didn't you hear me
All the times I told you that love was gone
No you never heard me
Cause I know there was too much on your mind
(refrain)
Runnin' around in a circle, (tryin' to catch up to myself)
Runnin' out of time
Losin' myself in the darkness, (every time I played my hand)
I was losin' every time
I knew I'd given all that I could give
That's why it had to end this way, (this way)
repeat chorus
I know that I hurt you
At a time you needed me there
Yes you did, yes I know (yes I know)
But my heart had been broken
And my mind was no longer there
I had to go, yes I did
repeat refrain
The leaves were down
Long before the autumn winds arrived
Long before the autumn winds arrived
The leaves were down
Before the summer sun had gone
Long before the autumn winds arrived
Im sorry that it had to be this way...
Love was gone...
repeat chorus
