Lyrics

Now the leaves are falling
And winter is calling
It's almost the end of the day

I love you baby
And I don't mean maybe
But there's nothing more left to say

Because fate is calling
There's no use stalling
It's time to be on my way

Now you've been so nice
You don't have to think twice
There is nothing you could have done

If I was unkind
Or my heart was blind
You know you're still my only one

But my fate is beckoning
It's a dead reckoning
And it all may become undone

I'm not trying to be clever
Both nothing lasts forever
Or maybe everything does

Maybe baby
I may be crazy
Or maybe I'm just feeling the buzz

That as time flies by
Nothing dies
What is just becomes what was

Now the leaves are falling
And winter is calling
It's almost the end of the year

I love you baby
And I don't mean maybe
But I must bid you farewell my dear

Because fate is calling
There's no use stalling
It's time for me to get out of here.
