Sound of the Leaves

The sun is sinking lower in the sky Day turns to night Something else had changed and I can see it in your eyes I wish I knew why If you listen closely you can Hear the quiet cries I could lay with you forever staring at the sky The stars are showing who I really am Listen to the sound of the leaves Rhythm of trees Look into the eyes that you see Stay here with me Listen to the sound of the leaves Rhythm of trees Why can't you see I wanna be Finally free Ever since that night I lie awake And think of all the lights and How they danced upon your face and How good life had seemed It's too late for me I wish I could make it so that We both knew the truth When I see you smile I wish that I'd confess to you If you want me to I will Listen to the sound of the leaves Rhythm of trees Look in to the eyes that you see Stay here with me Why can't you see I wanna be Finally free Don't tell me it's too late for me
