Slowly sailin' leaves The children of the trees Evicted by the wind And can't return again
Young girl by a stream Has lost her younger dreams Her childhood will end And won't return again
'Cause it's only a passing thing It's only what time will bring Though we are together thrown We're all alone We can't go home And you only have a heart To see that only love can guide you
I am just a man Followin' my heart Followin' a flame That never stays the same
'Cause it's only a passing thing It's only what time will bring Though we are together thrown We're all alone We can't go home And you only have a heart To see that only love can guide you
Yes, it's only a passing thing It's only what time will bring Though we are together thrown We're all alone We can't go home
