[00:09.78]	I was twenty-one years when I wrote this song.
[00:16.48]	Im twenty-two now but I wont be for long
[00:21.73]	Time hurries on.
[00:25.11]	And the leaves that are green turn to brown,
[00:33.97]	And they wither with the wind,
[00:38.99]	And they crumble in your hand.
[00:44.16]	Once my heart was filled with the love of a girl.
[00:51.05]	I held her close, but she faded in the night
[00:56.27]	Like a poem I meant to write.
[01:01.08]	And the leaves that are green turn to brown,
[01:10.02]	And they wither with the wind,
[01:15.10]	And they crumble in your hand.
[01:20.66]	I threw a pebble in a brook
[01:24.41]	And watched the ripples run away
[01:30.09]	And they never made a sound.
[01:33.43]	And the leaves that are green turned to brown,
[01:42.42]	And they wither with the wind,
[01:46.64]	And they crumble in your hand.
[01:53.12]	Hello, hello, hello, good-bye,
[01:57.99]	Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye,
[02:04.78]	Thats all there is.
[02:07.69]	And the leaves that are green turned to brown,
