Leaves are falling, falling from my heart.
Falling like the fading memories of days now past.
When you were here my heart was in bloom.
...
Where are the foot steps, I have left in the sand?
Have the waves of each day washed them away?
Replaced with clean sand, past mistakes cleaned away.
...
How many people have I met? So many have past my way.
Yet so lonely, on this path I made. My spirit drifts.
It will not stay. I long for home. I lost the way.
My path seems endless, no place to stay.
...
My captain I am tired, so weary in my soul.
My captain I am sorry. My fighting is done.
My friends are all gone. I am the only one.
I lay down my rifle. This day I am done.
