They Are Falling All Around Me
They are falling all around me
They are falling all around me
They are falling all around me
The strongest leaves of my tree
Every paper brings the news
Every paper brings the news
Every paper brings the news
The teachers of my life
Are moving on
Are moving on
Oh-woah
Death comes and rests so heavy
Death comes and rests so heavy
Death comes and rests so heavy
Your face I'll never see
I'll never see you anymore
But I'm not really gonna leave you
I'm not really gonna leave you
You're not really gonna leave me
It is your path I walk
It is your song I sing
It is your load I take on
It is your air I breathe
It is the record you set that makes me go on
It is your strength that makes me stand
You're not really
You're not really gonna leave me
I have tried to sing my song right
I have tried to sing my song right
I have tried to sing my song right
Be sure to let me hear
From you
