I'm sitting by your grave I'm thinking about you If you would just rise up So many things that we could do What remains is close Say six feet under But are you present now Oh grandpa I wonder When the leaves Will fall from the trees Yes and endlessly swirl In the wind I've been thinking 'bout eternity But I haven't thought it through A lifetime for me may be Just a second to you But that secret surely Belongs to another dawn I tell you just by sitting here I feel like I know why I was born I see the leaves Fall from the trees And endlessly swirl In the wind I've been thinking about leaving This life full of pain and fears But I decided to spare Your little daughter from tears Because I feel like I know that I've seen That the leaves Will fall from the trees And endlessly swirl In the wind
