Dreams Like Leaves
[Verse]
Second grade when dad came back to see
Mom and sis at Aunt's place happily
Nine long years since we had been apart
Joy rushed in and filled my little heart
[Verse]
Hugged him tight could not believe it true
Missed him so much all those years we knew
Showed him how I rode my bike that day
Saw the pride in eyes so clear and brave
[Pre-Chorus]
Sister laughed the sun was shining bright
Wished to be a baby in his arms that night
[Chorus]
But when he left I heard them talk
Hoped they'd fix things start a better walk
No matter how I prayed so hard
Dreams like leaves fell in the yard
[Verse]
Played together in the golden light
Every moment felt so pure and right
Time stood still just for us three
Perfect like it's meant to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Sister laughed the sun was shining bright
Wished to be a baby in his arms that night
[Final Chorus]
But when he left I heard them talk
Hoped they'd fix things start a better walk
No matter how I prayed so hard
Dreams like leaves fell in the yard
But when he left I heard them talk
Hoped they'd fix things start a better walk
No matter how I prayed so hard
Dreams like leaves fell in the yard
[Fade to End]
