Golden Leaves
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Do you remember how this first begun?
Teeth were white & our skin was young
Eyes as bright as the spanish sun
We had nothing we could hide
Now my dear we are two golden leaves
Clinging desperately to winter trees
Got up here like a pair of thieves
All the sirens blare outside
What's left to say when every words been spoken?
What's left to see when our eyes won't open?
What's left to do when we've lost all hope and
What's left to break when our hearts are broken?
But sometimes
Do you remember how this started out?
So full of hope and now we're full of doubt
Those dirty jokes we used to laugh about
But it's not funny anymore
I fear I choke unless I spit it out
I still smell of smoke, although the fires gone out
Can't live with you, but I'd die without
So, What's left to say when every words been spoken?
What's left to see when our eyes won't open?
What's left to do when we've lost all hope and
What's left to break when our hearts are broken?
But sometimes
So, What's left to say when every words been spoken?
What's left to see when our eyes won't open?
What's left to do when we've lost all hope and
What's left to break when our hearts are broken?
But sometimes
