We Are but Falling Leaves Lyrics

Think of your lifetime as one day
It's fading away

The shadows are growing long
Think of existence as a flame and death as rain
Storm clouds there right along
At life's eve our flames will cease
Eternally, unavoidably
Eventually all paths will lead
To the cemetery

We are but falling leaves in the air hovering down
Unaware we are spinning around

Scattered fragments of time
Like blinks of an eye we are
That's all we are

Think of your lifetime as one year
Look autumn is here

Getting colder, the winter's impending
Your conclusion's drawing near - certian, austere

Yes, only the circle's unending

At life's eve our flames will cease
Eternally, unavoidably
Eventually all paths will lead
To the cemetery
To the prior deceased

We are but falling leaves in the air hovering down
Unaware we will hit the ground

Scattered fragments of time
Like blinks of an eye we are

Just when we realize that we are alive, we die.
