Autumn leaves are falling
World is getting ready to sleep
You and I know it's better

Better not to hold or keep

Memories of days gone by

I put them locked aside
You and I know it's better
Better wait and see the tide


You won't follow love
It's too complicated to be real

You keep you heart when in doubt
Let the breath of life conceal


At the end of the day
Closing time never seemed so lonely
As you walk away

No other way
Tearing out the roots of life


Yesterday
All was real
But now it feels so empty

As you walk away
No other way
Tearing out the roots of love
