Текст песни Leaves Do Fall - The Rosebuds

Leaves Do Fall

You’ve been gone too long
Where can you be They said three months
You’d come for me
I’ve shouted «where?»
Out at the sea
'Cause your my love, my family
I’ve waited for the leaves to fall
For old John White to save us all
I’ve worn out both my hands and knees
I’m a desperate girl and that terrifies me Can you hear me love?
My heart’s the sea
It swirls and breaks
Since we can’t be Soon I’ll build this sail
And they’ll need me Then we’ll have kids, a family
I’ve waited for the leaves to fall
For old John White to save us all
I’ve worn out both my hands and knees
I’m a desperate man and that terrifies me
(Hey, ey-)
Baby birds don’t sing
In this old tree
And I’ve come down
to listen to the sea
So I must go My bones plus me To an earthen home to cradle me
I’ve waited for the leaves to fall
For old John White to save us all
I’ve worn out both my hands and knees
I’m a desperate girl and that terrifies me Amazed, alone
Now I do weep
For an ancient promise
I could not keep
But I’m her lover
And death to me This swirling ocean
Is the end of me
I’ve waited for the leaves to fall
For old John White to save us all
I’ve worn out both my hands and knees
I’m a desperate man and that terrifies me
(Hey, ey-)
