[00:08.19]The dead leaves of autumn
[00:11.64]That cling so desperately
[00:15.27]Must fly before the cold october winds
[00:19.62]Their simple lives have ended
[00:31.29]Must they be born to die again
[00:41.34]Oh may the light of freedom shine
[00:43.89]For all the world to see
[00:44.37]And peace and joy to all mankind
[00:55.53]Through all the years to be
[00:56.01]For soon the leaves will die
[01:09.24]And the long hard wind will blow
[01:09.90]May this world find a resting place
[01:28.89]Where the peaceful waters flow

The dead leaves of autumn
That cling so desperately
Must fly before the cold october winds
Their simple lives have ended
Must they be born to die again
Oh may the light of freedom shine
For all the world to see
And peace and joy to all mankind
Through all the years to be
For soon the leaves will die
And the long hard wind will blow
May this world find a resting place
Where the peaceful waters flow
