Sweet Leaf — Green Carnation

Oh sweet leaf Swaying in the wind Under stars and moon And sunrise gloom Hanging on the tree That gives you life

Oh sweet leaf Has your time come? Will your journey begin? Afraid of falling and falling With the wind Away, away from your origin

Oh sweet leaf How was it? Hanging under stars Feeling the wind Knowing you're safe Clinging on to me

Oh sweet leaf Why did you leave? Why didn't you stay? How can I be your guardian angel When you are away?

Oh dear father Let me tell you I loved to sway in the wind Under the stars and moon And sunrise gloom Clinging on to you

Oh dear father Can't you see? I am not running away I am just searching For the real me

Oh dear mother Why do we have to go? Why don't we stay? How can we be yours When we are always away?

Oh sweet leaf When your time comes
