[00:24.56]Mama, it is raining leaves,
[00:26.56]It's snowing leaves,
[00:28.41]They're falling down,
[00:30.21]I love the way she says that and,
[00:32.89]I love this part of town.
[00:36.35]I love being surrounded by
[00:38.97]So many kinds of trees,
[00:42.16]October on the west side reminds me
[00:45.15]To fall back east,
[00:48.03]'Cept I don't feel like falling for,
[00:51.01]The feeling that I've gotta fall,
[00:54.30]I feel like standing tall,
[00:55.88]And getting all of my ducks in a row,
[01:00.52]I'm sure some times I'll waver,
[01:03.15]But I'll savour good intentions
[01:06.14]I know,
[01:06.80]Yhat progress not perfection
[01:09.06]Is the only way to go,
[01:11.90]
[01:12.16]If I wanna grow,
[01:15.59]Gotta prove my soul,
[01:18.32]Shed the leaves,
[01:21.19]'Til I am wet and naked,
[01:23.98]Cold and rainy,
[01:25.41]So, there's room for those,
[01:30.72]Things that wanna grow,
[01:34.16]That are beautiful, and amazing.
[01:44.85]
[01:50.87]The days that seem,
[01:54.00]
[01:54.26]The most dreary,
[01:56.88]Are perfect for being creative and cosy,
[02:03.66]As long as we sing,
[02:06.70]Until the Spring,
[02:10.01]This Winter can be,
[02:12.57]A most magical thing,
[02:16.60]And our trunks will be,
[02:19.90]Solid and strong,
[02:23.13]Even after,
[02:25.91]The leaves are all gone,
[02:29.51]Our trunks will be,
[02:32.85]Solid and strong,
[02:35.88]Even after,
[02:38.93]The leaves are all gone.

[02:46.22]Mama, it is raining leaves,

[02:51.47]They're falling down,
[02:52.69]I love the way she says that and,
[02:55.07]I love this part of town,
[02:58.73]Mama, it is raining leaves,
[03:01.61]It's snowing leaves,
[03:03.27]They're falling down,
[03:05.16]I love the way she says that and,
[03:08.21]I love this part of town...
