Leaf
Song
i’ve been way up here since back in May
But it’s time for me to leave today
There’s a strong wind blowing down my way
And take off time is here
Quickly i am losing hold
It’s just a part of growing old
i’ve changed from green to red and gold
And that means it’s time to go
But i’ve seen the sunshine, felt the rain
Stars shone through my windowpane
The songbirds and the bumbling bee
Were very special friends to me
Now it’s fifty feet i have to fall
But that don’t bother me at all
i’m only answering nature’s call
And of that i have no fear
Though the wintertime might do me in
But springtime i’ll be back again
i’m just heading south with all my friends
It is time to fly away
