Mother, I'm tired Come surrender my son Time has ravaged on my soul No plans to leave, but still I go Falling with the leaves Falling out of sleep To the last goodbyes Who cares why? Mother, I've tried Wasting my life I haven't given up, I lie To make you so proud in my eyes Falling out of sleep Crawling over me To the last goodbyes Who cares why? Tuesday's come and gone Restless, still I drive Try to leave it all behind Falling, falling out of sleep Falling, falling with the leaves I go crawling, crawling over me Once upon a time in my life Once upon a time in my life Once upon a time in my life Once upon a time in my life I went falling I went falling Mother, I hope you know That I miss you so Time has ravaged on my soul To wipe a mother's tears grown cold
