Laura Vinson - Autumn Leaves Lyrics

AUTUMN LEAVES ARE FALLING
AND MY MEMORY'S CALLING ME, BACK AGAIN
I REMEMBER WHEN
I WAS JUST A CHILD IN SCHOOL
AH THERE'D BE SO MUCH I COULD DO
WHEN I'D GET OLDER

BUT OH HOW TIME SLIPS AWAY
WE LOSE A LITTLE EVERY DAY
AND AS THE YEARS GO BY
I'VE OFTEN WONDERED WHY
I NEVER NOTICED

I'M OLDER NOW IT SEEMS
BUT NOW MY SCHOOLGIRL DREAMS, DON'T SEEM TO SHINE
WOULDN'T IT BE FINE
IF WE COULD GO BACK TO THE TIME
WHEN EACH YEAR TOOK SO LONG
ETERNITY WAS UNTIL CHRISTMAS

BUT OH HOW TIME SLIPS AWAY
WE LOSE A LITTLE EVERY DAY
AND AS THE YEARS GET SHORTER
I FIND MY YOUTHFUL TIME
WAS OFTEN WASTED

IF WE COULD TAKE THE TIME
I'M SURE THAT WE WOULD FIND SO MUCH EACH DAY
WOULDN'T SLIP AWAY
IF WE'D JUST TAKE DAYS AS THEY COME
WE'D FIND IN EACH AND EVERY ONE
SOME MAGIC MOMENTS

BUT OH HOW TIME SLIPS AWAY
WE LOSE A LITTLE EVERY DAY
AND WHEN THE YEARS ARE GONE
I HOPE IN LIVING ON
I AM NOT SORRY

FOR ALL THE TIMES THAT SLIPPED AWAY
I LOST A LITTLE EVERY DAY
AND AS THE YEARS WENT BY
I OFTEN WONDER WHY
I NEVER NOTICED, I NEVER NOTICED
