-One Red Leaf-

THE SWEET SERENADE
WHICH THE SPARROW OFFERS
CARRIES ME AWAY TO A SERENE SCENE
THE CRICKETS CHIRP ONLY ACCENTUATES
THE LOVELY MELODY
YET THIS IS ONLY AN OVERTURE
FOR THE MOST GENTLE OF BREEZES
ORCHESTRATES A MOST SUBLIME SYMPHONY
I AM COMPELLEDD TO BELIEVE
MUSIC EXQUISIT AS THIS
CAN ONLY BE COMPOSED BY A DIVINE HAND
THE TREE TALL AND MAGNIFICENT
CANNOT HELP BUT SING ALONG
OH HOW IT STRETCHES UP TO THE HEAVENS
GIVING PRAISE TO ITS CREATOR
BUT WAIT! WHAT IS THIS?
ONE RED LEAF
A SINGLE RED LEAF
STANDING OUT AMONGST
THE GREEN
THIS ONE LEAF
ABSORBING MY SENSES
FOR SOON IT MUST GO
YET WHILE IT IS HERE I WILL CHERISH IT
BEHOLD
WITH THE NIGHT SKY AS IT’S STAGE
IT BEGINS ITS ARIA
-
EVERY NOW & THEN
WE FIND A SPECIAL FRIEND
WHO NEVER LETS US DOWN
WHO UNDERSTANDS IT ALL
REACHES OUT EACH TIME YOU FALL
YOU’RE THE BEST FRIEND THAT I’VE FOUND

I KNOW YOU CAN’T STAY
BUT PART OF YOU WILL NEVER EVER GO AWAY
YOUR HEART WILL STAY

I’LL MAKE A WISH FOR YOU
AND HOPE IT WILL COME TRUE
THAT LIFE WILL BE KIND
TO SUCH A GENTLE MIND

AND IF YOU LOSE YOUR WAY
THINK BACK ON YESTERDAY
REMEMBER ME THIS WAY…
-
ONE RED LEAF
IT IS AMAZING HOW I HAVE FOUND YOU
YOU KNEW I NEEDED THE INSPIRATION
THAT ONLY YOU COULD BRING
WHICH MAKES ME WONDER
WAS IT NOT YOU
THAT FOUND ME?
ONE RED LEAF
THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC
THAT WILL FOREVER BE YOUR LIFE
ONE RED LEAF
TAKE A BOW
YOUR SONG WILL ALWAYS
BE WITH ME…
