[Verse 1]
Staring at you play your guitar
I don't really know what I want this time
Don't like how you're catching me off guard
I don't wanna tell you what I'm thinking
When you call me up and ask me to see you tomorrow morning
I just won't respond then maybe you'll forget about it

[Chorus]
The leaves are falling and so am I
With the brown mascara running down my eyes
I break the silence
Stay up all night
'Cause maybe all I wanted was goodbye

[Verse 2]
You know I try to learn from my mistakes
But it's the same thing every time
I think I love when my heart breaks
And I think they love to make mе cry
You know I'm gonna say that we're just friends
Prеtending it's not breaking your heart
I don't really know how this ends
But I'm thinking this is how it starts

[Chorus]
The leaves are falling and so am I
With the brown mascara running down my eyes
I break the silence
Stay up all night
'Cause maybe all I wanted was goodbye
[Bridge]
I won't ask you to stay
I'm already gone
This is just a game
On some summer Saturday
You know I'll come back
When it's just too late
Ah, aah

[Chorus]
The leaves are falling
And so am I
Maybe one day I'll give it a try
But I'm not sleeping
I'm not alright
All I ever wanted was goodbye
