Oh the sweet autumn leaves They are turning black and leaving me Shriveled and sad in the mud Can it change you? "Let things be," she said As I rip the twigs off the branch Let it leave you all the same Cause you can't break free of it Sitting under an oak in the rain Holding my knees to feel safe Looking up at the sky Can it change you? Look at a stream, it's only a mirage Dip my feet in to feel calm I am different now, I can feel the change Cause you can't break free of it
