Verse 2

Leaves falling red, yellow, brown, all are the same,
and the love you have found lay outside in the rain.
Washed clean by the water but nursing its pain.
 

The witch's promise was coming,
and you're looking elsewhere for your own selfish gain.

(Then continue as in verse 1)
He was willing to give to you, you didn't care.
You're waiting for more but you've already had your share.

The witch's promise is turning,
so don't you wait up for him, he's going to be late.
