Lyrics
Mama cries, she lost her babies Softly, slowly, slipped like snowflakes Do you see a soul worth saving? Mama don't try to hide her heartbreak Can you hear them, calling out now? Weeping willows crying so loud Broken dreamers and lonely lovers Run from the truth, from one another Chorus: Who would wanna be the falling leaves? Dying silently around our feet Hear about it one day on the TV And in that moment we forget how to breathe Colours fade so quickly Can't say that they're a sight you'd wanna see The forced goodbyes of the swaying trees Waving off their falling leaves (CHORUS) Half asleep, for days they stumble Over torn land, no time to fumble Knowing it's futile, still blindly running Till they hit the ground, without a warning (CHORUS) The white flag ain't up yet Promise me that you won't forget The broken hearts of the swaying trees The fearlessness of the falling leaves I can hear the falling leaves They whisper to me Laying quiet around my feet And I forget how to breathe
