The leaf of love is slowly falling Like winter's storm with rain and snowYou broke a heart in one short moment The leaf of love is falling lowI'll never forget at our first meeting Though maybe it was meant to beI didn't think you'd prove false-hearted And kill the soul inside of meHow could you go and leave me lonely I had no one to call my ownThe tree that bore my love for you, dear Has shed its leaves, my love has flownLife's stormy road I'm traveling on now Where I will end, God only knowsA beaten rock along the river It's quiet and peaceful where he flowsThe leaf of love is slowly falling Like winter's storm with rain and snowYou broke a heart in one short moment The leaf of love is falling low
