Lyrics

All the doctors called her Sunshine
They kept her picture on the wall
She turned 11 in September
She was so brave to be so small
She loved the colored leaves of autumn
It was her favorite time of year
She'd lie in bed and watch them falling
Counting every moment dear
Life is so much sweeter
When you know it won't last long
Don't wait to take a picture
When the autumn leaves are gone
Billy was her little brother
He tried to be her Superman
Though he could tell that she'd grown weaker
Time was too hard to understand
So Daddy pointed out the window
As the tears fell from his eyes
He said when the last leaf has fallen
She'll be with Jesus in the sky
He said life is so much sweeter
When you know it won't last long
Don't wait to take a picture
When the autumn leaves are gone
Billy couldn't sleep that evening
If what his daddy said was true
He could hardly wait 'til morning
'Cause he knew exactly what to do
So he climbed the ladder to the treetop
And reached as far as he could reach
And with a smile, he started taping
The few left hanging leaf by leaf
And life is so much sweeter
When you know it won't last long
Don't wait to take a picture
When the autumn leaves are gone
One slow rain and the leaves are gone
And all that remains are memories
And sunshine
All the doctors called her Sunshine
They kept her picture on the wall
She turned 11 in September
She was so brave to be so small
