I was born on a rock where the stars didn't shine,

now I soar like a leaf on the wind,

The clouds were polluted, the sea filled with brine,

now I soar like a leaf on the wind,

I swore to myself that above it I'd rise,

Sail over the mountains and into the skies,

To see the stars brighter than man can devise,

I'd soar like a leaf on the wind.

When governments quarreled, I was called to the fight,

to soar like a leaf on the wind,

I offered my wings to the side I thought right,

to soar like a leaf on the wind,

Now after two sorties, my boat ran aground,

My captors with laurels of vict'ry were crowned,

When the killing was over, my freedom I found,

to soar like a leaf on the wind.

I wandered the whole 'verse, I went where I'd please,

adrift like a leaf on the wind,

I spent a whole month trying to juggle geese,

adrift like a leaf on the wind,

But wherever I went, there was one thing I'd lack,

The stars, they were calling for me to come back,

Farewell to the land and Ni-Hao to the black!

Once more I'm a leaf on the wind.

The Renshaw Boys begged me; Tanaka he raved,

to soar like a leaf on the wind,

Serenity's crew had the one thing I craved,

as I soared like a leaf on the wind,

The moons and the planets each have their own charms,

But the heavens I sought were in Zoe's strong arms,

A warrior, a Goddess, to keep me from harm,

as I soar like a leaf on the wind.

Now sometimes I carry a gun when I roam,

though I soar like a leaf on the wind,

With puppets and dinosaurs, I'm much more at home,

as I soar like a leaf on the wind,

Laughter was always my ally in life,

And humor has always deflected my strife,

It got me through torture, it won me my wife,

and I soar like a leaf on the wind.

It ain't easy to pilot a ship that can't turn,

but I'll soar like a leaf on the wind,

Can't pull crazy Ivans, can't go for hard burn,

but I'll soar like a leaf on the wind,

Now, once you've made sure that the signal gets through,

There's one final thing that I want you to do,

Put me where I'll see stars, so that I can see you,

and I'll soar like a leaf on the wind.

I went skydiving, and all I could think was, "I am a leaf on the wind. Watch how I soar." This just reminds me of that.

/PedantMode On So, that first verse is inaccurate, as it's heavily implied that Wash flew for the Alliance during the war, not the Browncoats. ... Still awesome though.

God, that last verse. So many feels.

Most of this is a cute song about Wash's life, and then the last verse hits you with feels.

I've listened to this song so many times but I guess I never realized just how sad the ending of the song is. <3 Wash

There's more views now. You know "The Browncoats".

I'm not saying there ever will be. However, the actor decided he was done with the Firefly 'verse, so his character was killed off so that, in the event that one does pop up, he won't be pestered to join it.

haha, serenity sequel, you jest.

The actor was moving on to other things, and didn't want to get wrangled into a sequel. So to make sure that didn't happen, they killed off the character.
