Artist/Band: John Denver
Lyrics for Song: Falling Leaves (The Refugees)
Lyrics for Album: Sunshine On My Shoulders: Best Of [2009]



Thank you for this precious day

These gifts you give to me

My heart so full of love for you

Sings praise for all I see

Oh sing for every mother's love

For every childhood tear

Oh sing for all the stars above

The peace beyond all fear



This is for the refugees

The ones without a home

A boat out on the ocean

City street alone

Are they not some dear mother's child

Are they not you and I

Are we the ones to bear this shame

Are they this sacrifice



Or are they just like falling leaves

Who give themselves away

From dust to dust from seed to shear

And to another day

If I could have one wish on earth

Of all I can conceive

T'would be to see another spring

And bless the falling leaves



Thank you for this precious day

These gifts you give to me

My heart so full of love for you

Sings praise for all I see

Oh sing for every mother's love

For every childhood tear

Oh sing for all the stars above

The peace beyond all fear.

Oh sing for all the stars above

The peace beyond all fear
