[Verse 1]
So I knew a girl once
She was the one I adored
So I fell in love once
With the girl that I mentioned before

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I'm giving up slowly
Giving up slowly
Giving slowly, love
And so I'm giving up slowly
Giving up slowly
Learning how to love someone

[Chorus]
So look what you did to me
Look what you did to me
Look what you did to me, autumn
I'm a leaf that's gone falling free
Beneath all the maple trees
In front of your house to the bottom (yeah)

[Verse 2]
So I watched the leaves fall
All of the way to the ground
And I knew that that was what love was
To die so that it could be found
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And they're, they're giving up slowly
They're giving up slowly
They're giving slowly, love
And so they're giving up slowly
They're giving up slowly
They're learning how to love someone

[Chorus]
They say look what you did to me
Look what you did to me
Look what you did to me, autumn
I'm a leaf that's gone falling free
Beneath all the maple trees
In front of this house to the bottom

[Bridge]
Well, winter's chill won't leave until
I let it lay me down
And you can't see the spring
Till you're like the leaves
Here on the autumn ground

[Pre-Chorus 3]
And so, I'm giving up slowly
I'm giving up slowly
Giving slowly, love
And so I'm giving up
I'm giv-giving up
I'm giv-giving up (oh)
[Chorus]
So look what you did to me
Look what you did to me
Look what you did to me autumn
I'm a leaf that's gone falling free
Beneath all the maple trees
In front of this house to the bottom

[Outro]
Yeah, winter's gone
Spring has come
Love is here can't you see
Like the autumn leaves
Bring me to the spring
Show me how to love someone
