lyrics

lone leaf in the wind
abandoned by her tree
who cried out in rage uncling yr
wretched arm from me

her branch it whipped and swayed
and sent her on her way
a lonely leaf cant find nowhere
to lay

lone leaf in the wind
landed in a stream
and everything that swam in it
they started just to scream

and splashed a little wave
that sent her on her way
a lonely leaf cant find nowhere
to lay

lone leaf in the wind
where she ought to be
always very far away
from where she can be seen

there’s anger every day
that throws her far away
a lonely leaf cant find nowhere
to lay

lone leaf in the wind
landed on a rock
said you must have wandered
way too far off from yr flock

into the ground they caved
and sent her on her way
a lonely leaf cant find nowhere
to lay

lone leaf in the wind
she fell into the sky
not a single cloud or star
did bother give a sigh

and it jumped from march to may
and sent her on her way
a lonely leaf cant find nowhere
to lay

lone leaf in the wind
picked up by a kid
crumbled into peices
and swept up into a bin

now dust inside a tray
for which no one seems to pray
never any thought for a lonely leaf
on a windy autumn day
