[Verse 1]
Your leafless birches like no one
You leave your body here too
When winter comes around again
Someday its without you

[Verse 2]
You leave behind a mens crying
Until it's seems time to
I'll stay behind and sing the songs of better times and think of you

[Chorus]
Now I think I understand you my darling
And all the things you tried to say
Once you'll have to let your love leave without you
And not because they don't want to stay

[Verse 3]
The sun will rise again tomorrow
Just like it doesn't understand
That you have left and all that's left to do is sing for you

[Chorus]
Now I think I understand you my darling
And all the things you tried to say
Once you'll have to let your love leave without you
And not because they don't want to stay

[Bridge]
I understand now
I understand
Now I understand that

[Chorus]
Now I think I understand you my darling
And all the things you tried to say
Once you'll have to let your love leave without you
And not because they don't want to stay
