(Verse 1)
I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song,
I'm twenty-two now, but I won't be for long,
Time hurries on,
us2
And the leaves that are---- green---- turn to brown,
u us2
And they wither with the wind,
And they crumble in your hand!
(Verse 2)
us2
Once my heart was filled with the love of a girl,
I held her close, but she faded in the night,
Like a poem I meant to write,
us2
And the leaves that are---- green---- turn to brown,
u us2
And they wither with the wind,
And they crumble in your hand!
(Verse 3)
I threw a pebble in a brook,
And watched the ripples run a - way,
And they never made a sound,
us2
And the leaves that are---- green---- turn to brown,
u us2
And they wither with the wind,
And they crumble in your hand!
(Verse 4)
Hello, hel - lo, hel - lo, hel - lo,
Good -bye, good -bye, good -bye, good - bye,
That's all there is,
And the leaves that are---- green----...
...Turn to brown!
