Please don't say 'don't cry my love'
Please don't say 'don't cry please'
When you say 'please don't cry' my love
The pain and hurt it does not ease
Please don't say 'don't cry my love'
Please don't say 'please don't cry'
I know you want to ease my pain
But let me tell you why
It's like saying 'please don't fall'
To the golden autumn leaves
They may be many or may be few
But they the must leave their burdened tree
No matter how loyal they remain
To their saddened master
There's a stronger force - deep inside
That expels them ever faster
So well we know the deep hollow darkness
As impending winter draws ever near
Then sorrow spreads all around us
Even to those we hold so dear
As time goes by it seems as if
This constant flow will never cease
When we gaze to the one we love
And find pain instead of peace
But there comes a time, when it does end
When the tree is exposed and bare
Then the wind arrives to gather the leaves
Taking them to the one who does care
Now when my caring one does come
To mend the tree that seems broken
The caring one finds - deep in the soul
There something that has spoken
So you my caring one, must now know
The leaves had to leave their wary host
For if they had remained
There'd be no space for repair or new growth
So please don't say 'don't cry my love'
Please don't say 'don't cry please'
When you say 'please don't cry' my love
The pain and hurt it does not ease
Please don't sat 'don't cry' my love
Please don't say 'please don't cry'
I know you want to ease my pain
But remember the autumn leaves - and understand why
