Black Leaf Falls

It weighs too much this time

My hands are broken

She'll disappear again

Before we've spoken

The night we took that year

In Black Leaf Falls

All of the trees were bare

Next to the dance hall

I saw you outside

The bathroom stalls

You were just standing there

Out in the hall

You leaned your hip against

Against the wall

I'd love you anywhere

But Black Leaf Falls

Her perfume was so

I smell it still

I put her leaf upon

The window sill

I found it there today

Its color gone

It's in the water now

It's been too too long

I saw you outside

The bathroom stall

You were just standing there

Out in the hall

You leaned your hip against

Against the wall

I'd love you anywhere

But Black Leaf Falls

I'll fall asleep tonight

See where they take me

Fly with the maple seeds

See if she wakes me

I saw you outside

The bathroom stalls

You were just standing there

Out in the hall

You turned your eyes to me

I felt it all

I'd love you anywhere

But Black Leaf Falls

Oh, Black Leaf Falls
