[Verse 1]
Autumn, the frost has come and kissed
All the leaves to sleep forever
Time sketches a few lines
And etches its wishes into our lives
See how everything's changin'
And see how time is rearrangin'
The people and the places
Keeping nothing sacred
[Refrain]
And like the leaves in the autumn wind
We're driftin'
[Verse 2]
We've been too many places
We've seen too much, touched too many faces
To think that there's just one way to love
Or that there's just a day to love
Somewhere some special moment in time and space
We were blown face to face
But our lives are borrowed
We love today and die tomorrow
[Refrain]
Like the leaves in the autumn wind
We're driftin'
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I will always be grateful
That time has granted us the right
To be lovers if for just a moment
We've lived in the Garden, we know it
So if today is our last one
Let's run out into the sun, oh, oh
Love, hold onto my hand
Hold on as long as you can
[Refrain]
For we're just like leaves in the autumn wind
We're driftin'
[Outro]
Just like leaves in the autumn wind
We're driftin'
