Текст песни "Falling Leaves" |
 This song appears on three albums, and was first released on the higher ground album, and has also been released on the gift you are and the john denver collection - sunshine on my shoulder albuR
Thank you for this precious dayThese gifts you give to meMy heart so full of love for youSings praise for all I seeOh sing for every mother's childFor every childhood tearOh sing for all the stars aboveThe peace beyond all fear
This is for the refugeesThe ones without a homeA boat out on the oceanA city street aloneAre they not some dear mother's childAre they not you and iAre we the ones to bear this shameAnd they this sacrifice
Or are they just like falling leavesWho give themselves awayFrom dust to dust from seed to shearAnd to another dayIf I could have one wish on earthOf all I can conceiveT'would be to see another springAnd bless the falling leaves
Thank you for this precious dayThese gifts you give to meMy heart so full of love for youSings praise for all I seeOh sing for every mother's childFor every childhood tearOh sing for all the stars aboveThe peace beyond all fear
