 2x
Leaves were falling, down  like embers,
 In colors red and gold, they set us on fire
 Burning just like moonbeams  in our eyes.
Somebody  said they saw  me, swinging  the world by the tail
 Bouncing over a white  cloud, killing  the blues.
Now I'm guilty of something...
 I hope you never do
 Because there is nothing
 Any sadder than losing yourself  in love.
Somebody  said they saw  me, swinging  the world by the tail
 Bouncing over a white  cloud, killing  the blues.
 Before  you ask me... just  to leave  you
 To run out on my own
 And get what I need  to
 You want me to find  what I've already had.
Somebody  said they saw  me, swinging  the world by the tail
 Bouncing over a white  cloud, killing  the blues.
Somebody  said they saw  me, I was swinging  the world by the tail
 Bouncing over a white  cloud, killing  the blues.
