Lyrics
The Yellow Leaves of Autumn
The yellow leaves of Autumn
Bring sadness to my heart
The end of summer's beauty seems to say
That love is like a blossom,
to bloom once, standing part
The only one I love walked out today
Yellow leaves,
Yellow leaves
No longer, do I hear the songbird's call
The meadow brown reflects the sorrow
Of this heart of mine
(Of this lonesome time)
And the yellow leaves of Autumn start to fall
The Autumn breeze is blowin'
As I sit here, all alone
Wonderin' why our love should end this way
I guess it proves the sayin'
that I've heard for so long
that all good things come to an end some day
