First Leaves Of Autumn ~ an Irish folk song
As the daylight turns to starlight 
and the  season turns to  change,
I  get the same old answers 
but the  question still remains.
We shared a brief but magic  song,
By the  first leaves of autumn, 
you were  gone.
 Not until the  rain has  touched my  face,
Not until the  first leaves  fell from  space,
Not until that  moment  did I  see,
I  never  realised what you  meant  to me,
From the days you filled with sunlight,
To the laughter in you eyes ,
To the making and the breaking 
of the day you said goodbye,
We shared a brief but magic song,
By the first leaves of autumn, 
you were gone.
Not until the hearts defense is down 
Not until old come-all-ye comes round ,
Not until that moment did I see,
Never realised what you meant to me
Not until the rain has touched my face,
Not until the first leaves fell from space,
Not until that moment did I see,
Never realised what you meant to me.
