Fallen Lyrics - North - Elvis Costello

All the leaves are turning yellow, red and brown 

Soon they'll be scattered as they tumble down 

Although they may be swept up so invitingly 

I never did what I was told 

I trampled though the amber and the burnished gold 

But now... I clearly see how cruel the young can be 

You can convince yourself of anything 

If you wish both hard and long 

And I believed that life was wonderful 

Right up to the moment when love went wrong

I gaze up at the tree-tops and laugh 

I need somebody to shake me loose 

I want to know what happens next 

'Til I don't care at all 

There I go 

Beginning to fall
