A leaf falls from a tree
Carried by an autumn wind,
Wishing I too could be free
A bird spreads out its wings.

Starlit skies cover my nights
Make leaves and birds fade out,
And I know this can't be right
I'm outside, alone, left out.

Waves are breaking on white shores
Dancing sea absorbs my tears,
My wounded soul still pains and sores
I cannot quiet down my fears.

Green soft grass between my toes
Flowers singing in the sun,
I am hiding from my foes
I have nowhere left to run.

Leaves and flowers, stars and waves
A bird spreads out its wings,
For their freedom I still crave
Be what an autumn wind would bring.
