《Leaves Don’t Drop (They Just Let Go)》歌词

[00:00:01] Leaves Don't Drop (They Just Let Go) - Carrie Newcomer

[00:00:09] The truth I learned when I was eight

[00:00:14] My dad swam the length of Spirit Lake

[00:00:18] Yeah and It must have been a million miles

[00:00:23] This I knew was true

[00:00:28] My mother sang while hanging clothes

[00:00:33] Her notes weren't perfect heaven knows

[00:00:37] Yeah but heaven opened anyway

[00:00:42] This I knew was true

[00:00:47] 'Cause leaves don't drop they just let go

[00:00:53] And make a space for seeds to grow

[00:00:59] And every season brings a change

[00:01:01] A tree is what a seed contains

[00:01:04] To die and live is life's refrain

[00:01:14] I left her with some groceries

[00:01:18] Said "Check the oil and call me please"

[00:01:22] And she said "Hey Ma I'll be just fine"

[00:01:27] This I knew was true

[00:01:33] 'Cause leaves don't drop they just let go

[00:01:39] And make a space for seeds to grow

[00:01:45] And every season brings a change

[00:01:47] A tree is what a seed contains

[00:01:49] To die and live is life's refrain

[00:02:04] I've traveled through my history

[00:02:09] From certainty to mystery

[00:02:13] God speaks in rhyme in paradox

[00:02:18] This I know is true

[00:02:23] And finally when my life is through

[00:02:28] And what I am not what I do

[00:02:32] 'Cause it comes down to you and your next breath

[00:02:37] This I know is true

[00:02:42] 'Cause leaves don't drop they just let go

[00:02:48] And make a space for seeds to grow

[00:02:54] And every season brings a change

[00:02:56] A tree is what a seed contains

[00:02:58] To die and live is life's refrain
