Something in the air is changing
Something in the way you smile
Days are getting just a little shorter
Won’t you stay with me a while
I can hear the wind outside now
Moving softly through the trees
Funny how the smallest moments
Bring you closer here to me
Falling slowly
Like the evening through the trees
Falling softly
Like a whisper on the breeze
I wasn’t looking for a reason
I never meant to lose my way
But I’m falling slowly
A little more each day
There’s a quiet in the garden
There’s a coolness in the air
I was watching leaves go drifting
Then I turned and found you there
Maybe nothing lasts forever
Maybe seasons have to change
Still I wouldn’t trade this moment
For another summer day
Falling slowly
Like the evening through the trees
Falling softly
Like a whisper on the breeze
I wasn’t looking for a reason
I never meant to lose my way
But I’m falling slowly
A little more each day
Let the leaves fall where they may
Let the daylight slip away
I don’t mind the colder weather
If it brings you here to stay
And when all the trees are bare
And November fills the air
I’ll remember how it started
On an ordinary day
Falling slowly
Now I think I understand
Some things happen without warning
Some things never need a plan
I wasn’t looking for a reason
But my heart has found its way
And I’m falling slowly
A little more each day
