Robbie Madison, David Craig, Johnny Mercer, Joseph Kosma, Greg Petito, Robert Madison and Gavin Moolchan - Autumn Leaves

And I'll miss you most of all my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall

Oh, every moment that I close my eyes
I dream of you once again
Dreaming of every time I got to see that smile
Oh, the touch of your lips and finger tips
Bring me the coolness of glacier spring
And the warmth of every waking moment
With you is like the first of springtime

You say my name and my heart flutters again
At the thought of you and me
Making the moment of our love a lovely miracle melody
And the sound of every word that utters from your lips
Sets me aflame, burning the kindling longing
For you to come into my heart again

Don't you ever leave me again
My heart can take it in
That it has to be apart from the one
That it's searched for all its life for
Why should it ever have to be apart again
Starving my life from what keeps me smitten

Oh, how I love her so, and I'll never let her go I
With all my life, promise to give her all that she adores
And for every thing that she could ever ponder
Wanting in this world I want to give it all to her
Whatever she dreams of able to bring her a smile
So that she can light up all the darkest places that
Come when she leaves me
Never leave me home again love
Never want to be apart from baby
Never without your love
