Well, strike me down if you wish For never wanting you for long Seasons turn, oh, so do I Though empty promises fool my songs A cold wind's bending the morning And the backroad bears the pain I came with the gift of a newday See, I leave with a gift of rain And see two leaves falling See they kiss then drift away And it's true, I really wanted you And it's true, I really wanted you Just yesterday... I can see your eyes made for their crying Like a star was made to shine My face was meant to bear knowledge Empty promises, fool lies And see two leaves falling See they kiss then drift away And it's true, I really wanted you And it's true, I really wanted you Just yesterday... So let us strike out Touch the new day Let our bruises meet there Like them, the rain has forsaken We will need the greatest care And see two leaves falling See they kiss, then drift away And it's true, I really wanted you And it's true, I really wanted you Just yesterday... Strike me down if you wish For not wanting you for long Seasons turn, so do I Though empty promises fool my songs
