Please 

leaves are falling by my window 
like stories you read in a book 
tell me how to swim 
when the water has taken a hold of me 
memories, they go away 
like noises they fade in the air 

please, how can I understand this 
please, tell me how it is 
please, how can I understand this 
please, tell me how it is 

written papers with no name on 
hold on, hold on to it 
carefully you walk to slow 
you might fall, trip, begging for control 

please, how can I understand this 
please, tell me how it is 
please, how can I understand this 
please, tell me how it is
