Sound of the Leaves Lyrics

The sun is sinking lower in the sky

Day turns to night

Something else had changed and I can see it in your eyes

I wish I knew why

If you listen closely you can

Hear the quiet cries

I could lay with you forever staring at the sky

The stars are showing who I really am

Listen to the sound of the leaves

Rhythm of trees

Look into the eyes that you see

Stay here with me

Listen to the sound of the leaves

Rhythm of trees

Why can't you see I wanna be

Finally free

Ever since that night I lie awake

And think of all the lights and

How they danced upon your face and

How good life had seemed

It's too late for me

I wish I could make it so that

We both knew the truth

When I see you smile I wish that

I'd confess to you

If you want me to I will

Listen to the sound of the leaves

Rhythm of trees

Look in to the eyes that you see

Stay here with me

Why can't you see I wanna be

Finally free

Don't tell me it's too late for me
