[00:47.27] Standing here
[00:49.60] The old man said to me
[00:51.94] "Long before these crowded streets
[00:54.88] Here stood my dreaming tree"
[00:57.70] Below it he would sit
[01:00.27] For hours at a time
[01:02.66] Now progress takes away
[01:05.34] What forever took to find
[01:08.36] And now he's falling hard
[01:11.12] He feels the falling dark
[01:14.08] How he longs to be
[01:16.62] Beneath his dreaming tree
[01:19.38] Conquered fear to climb
[01:22.00] A moment froze in time
[01:24.35] When the girl who first he kissed
[01:27.42] Promised him she'd be his
[01:29.94] Remembered mother's words
[01:32.82] There beneath the tree
[01:34.93] "No matter what the world
[01:38.04] You'll always be my baby"
[01:40.96] Mommy come quick
[01:43.49] The dreaming tree has died
[01:46.19] The air is growing thick
[01:48.76] A fear he cannot hide
[01:51.49] The dreaming tree has died
[01:54.58]
[02:17.89] Oh have you no pity
[02:22.18] This thing I do
[02:24.42] I do not deny it
[02:27.07] All through this smile
[02:29.61] As crooked as danger
[02:32.61] I do not deny
[02:35.19] I know in my mind
[02:37.92] I would leave you now
[02:40.56] If I had the strength to
[02:43.39] I would leave you up
[02:46.01] To your own devices
[02:48.70] Will you not talk
[02:51.33] Can you take pity
[02:53.87] I don't ask much
[02:57.05] But won't you speak
[02:59.15] Please
[03:01.15]
[03:28.07] From the start
[03:30.47] She knew she had it made
[03:33.23] Easy up 'til then
[03:35.56] For sure she'd make the grade
[03:38.51] Adorers came in hordes
[03:41.18] To lay down in her wake
[03:44.11] Gave it all she had
[03:46.36] But treasures slowly fade
[03:48.84] And now she's falling hard
[03:52.07] Feels the fall of dark
[03:54.37] How did this fall apart
[03:57.26] She drinks to fill it up
[03:59.83] A smile of sweetest flowers
[04:02.76] Wilted so and soured
[04:05.37] Black tears stain the cheeks
[04:07.97] That once were so admired
[04:10.58] She thinks when she was small
[04:13.50] There on her father's knee
[04:15.80] How he had promised her
[04:18.56] "You'll always be my baby"
[04:21.54] "Daddy come quick
[04:24.11] The dreaming tree has died
[04:26.62] I can't find my way home
[04:29.54] There is no place to hide
[04:32.20] The dreaming tree has died"
[04:34.54]
[04:58.57] Oh, if I had the strength to
[05:02.52] I would leave you up
[05:05.12] To your own devices
[05:07.88] Will you not talk
[05:10.50] Can you take pity
[05:13.15] I don't ask much
[05:16.28] But won't you speak
[05:18.30] Please
[05:20.88]
[05:49.05] Take me back
[05:51.23]
[05:51.81] Take me back
[05:53.94]
[05:54.47] Take me back
[05:56.63]
[05:57.13] Take me back
[05:59.19]
[05:59.76] Take me back
[06:01.97]
[06:02.55] Take me back
[06:04.56]
[06:05.14] Take me back
[06:07.15]
[06:07.75] Save me please,
[06:18.79] take me back
[06:21.18]
