Nat King Cole – Autumn Leaves

(French Lyrics by Jacques Prévert,

English Lyrics by Johnny Mercer,

Music by Joseph Kosma)

The falling leaves drift by the window

The autumn leaves of red and gold

I see your lips, the summer kisses

The sun-burned hands I used to hold

Since you went away the days grow long

And soon I’ll hear old winter’s song

But I miss you most of all my darling

When autumn leaves start to fall

C
