about

Oscar Rossignoli's beautiful composition that I added lyrics to.

lyrics

WHEN FIRST WE MET
LEAVES WERE CHANGING
I LOOKED IN YOUR EYES
YES THAT MEMORY NEVER FADES FOR ME TO THIS DAY

EVERYTHING STILL
THERE WAS NO BREEZE
BUT I FELT A CHILL
ALL THE LEAVES LOOKED JUST LIKE FLAMES ACROSS THE SKY
WON’T DENY
THAT I KEEP ON FALLING

IT REMAINED THOUGH STRANGE
AS AN IMAGE THAT I FOUND
UNCHANGED
I AWAKE WITH IT EVERY DAY
SPELLBOUND

LAST I SAW YOU
LEAVES WERE FADING
AND SO HAD THAT THRILL
WE’D DECEND FROM A LOVE THAT FAILED IN THE TEST OF TIME

TREES DO NOT DIE
JUST BECAUSE ALL THE BRIGHT COLORS FADE
THEY BURST FORTH IN SPRING REBORN WITH BRAND NEW LIFE
THEN CHANGE AND LEAVES FALL
ONCE AGAIN
AS DO I
ONCE AGAIN
I KEEP ON FALLING

IF I COULD I’D LIVE IN THAT IMAGE THAT I’VE FOUND
AGAIN
WITH A LOVE BURNING JUST LIKE A FLAME
SPELLBOUND
