I stay still here, until the trees cry leaves in autumn
I am certain that I will soon return to loving
Yes I'll return to loving - even I,
Finally
You've put everything back into place
Without asking me for permission
I turn my world upside down
While I was still inside
You changed suddenly
Your voice, everything, all of a sudden
Even the expression on your face
Is no longer reassuring
And now that you're far from me
I stay still here, until the trees cry leaves in autumn
I am certain that I will soon return to loving
Yes I'll return to loving - even I,
Finally
It's happened a little to everyone
To one day hear someone say
"My mind is confused"
Your heart begins to flutter
Fog that quickly attacks
That clear illusion
Of not having to say goodbye
With your suitcase at the front door
And now that you're far from me
I stay still here, until the trees cry leaves in autumn
I am certain that I will soon return to loving
Yes I'll return to loving - even I,
Finally
You'll remain a far-off thought
That holds on to the greatest part of
What I was but not what I will be
What I was but not what I will be
I stay still here, until the trees cry leaves in autumn
I am certain that I will soon return to loving
Yes I'll return to loving - even I,
Finally
I stay still here, until the trees lose leaves in autumn
And will have them again
I'll return to loving, yes I'll return to loving - even I,
Finally
