All the leaves of the willow
they wave goodbye
flow with the wind
when the winter comes
they're all falling down
leaves the willow all alone

why'd you keep me waiting so long
you keep me waiting, hanging on
why'd you keep me waiting so long
so long
so long

i shop till i drop
and i drink till i drown
i keep myself out on the town
coz i dont want to come back
to an empty place
just like that sad lonely old willow
its leaves are my tears

why'd you keep me waiting so long
you keep me waiting, hanging on
why'd you keep me waiting so long
so long
so long

leaves . . .
tears . . .
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears they fall down

why'd you keep me waiting so long
you keep me waiting, hanging on [ohh so long]
why'd you treat me so wrong [so long, so long]
so long
so long
so long
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears they fall down [ so long]
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears they fall down [so long]
leaves and tears they fall down
leaves and tears they fall down [so long]
leaves and tears they fall down
so long
so long
