falling leaves will shame the trees
and branches bare, will feel your stare
and wonder why the loving leaves fell down
and wonder when they're coming back to town
cars will obsolete my sweating feet
and socks will love the shoes they meet
summer will take all our socks off
and shoes will pretend that they don't care
secretly they'll be heart-broken
and wonder when our socks we'll wear
every word it seems absurd
but I know that we will be happy
darling girl I know that you love me
and you know that I love you too
and we know that leaves are temporary
and we won't be leaving soon
