Lyrics

  1. ‘Neath a springtime sky above
    When ev’ry hour brought some new flow’r
    Then you brought me love
    But like the changing seasons do
    It seems that you’ve changed too

Refrain
When the leaves bid the trees good-bye
And they fall like the tears I cry
It seems as though they knew
That we were parting too
And I am losing you, you’ve said good-bye
Like the leaves leave the trees forlorn
When you go all the charm is gone
So bruised and torn they lie
And like your love they die
When the leaves bid the trees good-bye

  1. Like the trees I stand alone
    And face the pain of snow and rain
    While the north winds moan
    The song birds all are gone today
    Like love they’ve flown away
