Lyrics
Chorus
Leaving, yes I'm leaving
And I don't want to change my mind
Leaving home don't want to go
Miss the flowers I'll miss the snow
Leaving friends so far behind
Guess I'll make new friends another time
Chorus
Mellow days and passing seasons
Silver mornings they stay with me
Have to go I have my resons
Passing trains won't you set me free
Chorus
Summer's come and spring is over
Fleeting seasons not standing still
now capped hills and fields of clover
If I don't leave now I never will
Chorus
Leaving yes I'm leaving
And I'll miss home all of my life
Leaving home don't want to go
Miss the flowers I'll miss the snow
Leaving friends so far behind
Guess I'll make new friends another time
Chorus
Repeat and fade
