One Last Time

I walk alone down the street, 
When a dead leaf falls on my feet. 

There’s stillness all around,
Not a soul is to be found.

Life was not to forever last,
In this town it went too fast.

I look back at my place,
All dreams and desires let to rest, 

Now only the memories bring it to life, 
For one last time.
