I noticed you starting to forget.
You tried to tell me, whats on your mind, with the look of " fret."
I wiped your tears that held in all your fears.
Every word you would try to say, I knew that things were not okay.
Your illness started eating at your brain, piece by piece.
Soon you will not remember anything, the meds will keep you at ease.
The doctor told me that you suffer with Alzheimer's, your at your last stage.
Soon you won't even remember my face.
Every second that I get to spend with you, is a memory that i will remember.
The doctor says after the fallen leaves has passed is december.
That will be the time, i will have to say goodbye.
Fallen leaves, it's time to fly.
I saw you become a stranger to me.
You couldn't remember my name, i just let you be.
I watched you from afar
Never asking how you are.
I knew that you didn't remember me, but I still loved you so.
I knew exactly what was happening to you, little did you know.
Your mind was slowly fading to a place i will never go.
Fallen leaves, it's time to fly.
Fallen leaves, it's time to say good-bye.
Fallen leaves, it's time to fly.
Fallen leaves, it's time to say good-bye.
