The Way The Leaf Falls

Gently dance your fantastical dance
Listen, listen the wind calls
From majestic maple tree break free
Glide down, down that’s the way the leaf falls

Alluring tranquility of wind
Lured in gust’s seductive thrall
Break free from majestic maple tree
Glide down, down that’s the way the leaf falls

Wander far and wide through the world
After airborne makes landfall
From majestic maple tree break free
Glide down, down that’s the way the leaf falls
