[Verse 1]
Leaves were falling just like embers
In colors red and gold, they set us on fire
Burning just like a moonbeam in our eyes

[Chorus]
Somebody said they saw me
Swingin' the world by the tail
Bouncin' over a white cloud
Killin' the blues

[Verse 2]
Now I am guilty of something
I hope you never do, because there is nothing
Sadder than losing yourself in love

[Chorus]
Somebody said they saw me
Swingin' the world by the tail
Bouncin' over a white cloud
Killin' the blues

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Now you ask me just to leave you
To go out on my own and get what I need to
You want me to find what I've already had
[Chorus]
Somebody said they saw me
Swingin' the world by the tail
Bouncin' over a white cloud
Killin' the blues
Somebody said they saw me
Swingin' the world by the tail
Bouncin' over a white cloud
Killin' the blues
