Summer came and summer went
Just like all the years before
Still every time the first leaf falls
I think of life when I first saw
A love as bittersweet
As yours
The tick of time and seasons change
Yearly reminder of our lovers haze
Now I don't find it true, that saying
Not everything is washed
Away in the rain
Mmh, mmh
Mmh, mmh
Birds and years are flying by
Reminds me of how foolishly
I still try
Though countless times men have tried
But nothing stops the tick of time
But I'll keep an eye out
For you wherever I go
From now on
Just leave the sight of you
In my window
Slowly dancing in the kitchen with
Morning softly sailing in
On us
The tide is gone and still it stays
Water's low but soon will rise
I can't help it, I can't hide
Back and forth I go to the
Tick of time
It's bittersweet but sweet you know
To be chained to you
When all it takes
Is for the first leaf to fall
