Today i saw a leaf fall down from a tree
If only you could know what it means to me
To see it twirl around high in the sky
More free than any bird could ever fly
I wish you could truly see
How precious that leaf is to me
To see it float lighter than snow
If only you could know
This leaf has captured me
More peaceful than could really be
Followed it for a thousand hours
I wish you could know it's super powers
Up and down hills, across town twice
The leaf blows gently it has no price
Never touching ground, never letting go
If only you understood how it makes me glow
It's nearly midnight now
Little leaf has shown me how
These wonder i watch, i love them so
For someday the little leaf will grow
The leaf it silently lands
i hold up in shaking hands
Off it goes again, the wind will carry on
This day i wasted not, the leaf is never gone
Little leaf move on, it's dawn
This leaf has guided me so long
I would never ask for more
Little leaf has brought me to your door
Now i share with you
So lovely and so true
The tale of the little leaf
And how it ended all my grief
