[00:13.86] |
The cherry tree is broken |
[00:16.96] |
The maple leaf is brown |
[00:20.10] |
The wind is in the north east |
[00:22.97] |
It's blowing through the town |
[00:26.41] |
Morning is the mother |
[00:29.31] |
She pulls you out of bed |
[00:32.51] |
Noon is like the sister |
[00:35.48] |
No hiding from the threat |
[00:38.80] |
I want you for a lover |
[00:41.73] |
I want you in the dusk |
[00:44.75] |
Your thoughts are deep, unspoken |
[00:47.91] |
Buried in your past |
[00:50.87] |
The cherry tree is broken |
[00:54.10] |
The maple is a lie |
[00:57.13] |
The north east wind is building |
[01:00.10] |
The people go inside |
[01:03.55] |
I want to stay in this place |
[01:06.39] |
Where thoughts are warm and bright |
[01:09.58] |
I want to stay by your side |
[01:12.58] |
And listen to your words |
[01:15.66] |
The chaos is unbroken |
[01:18.66] |
All the news is grim |
[01:21.95] |
Feeds into the conscience |
[01:25.27] |
Chase away the dream |
[01:28.60] |
The cherry tree is broken |
[01:31.18] |
The maple has blown down |
[01:34.36] |
The water it is rising |
[01:37.37] |
The power has gone out |
[01:40.49] |
I want to find some respite |
[01:43.45] |
From ignorance and lies |
[01:46.71] |
I run from passing strangers |
[01:49.78] |
I run from evil eyes |
[01:52.90] |
I need to take some shelter |
[01:56.40] |
I look for you in storms |
[01:59.70] |
I know you have a foxhole |
[02:01.88] |
I know it's dark and warm |
[02:05.20] |
I see you in the kitchen |
[02:08.33] |
I see you by the fire |
[02:11.33] |
Absorbing life's great stories |
[02:14.43] |
Drinking with your... |
[02:18.68] |
Drinking wine in goblets |
[02:20.82] |
Knees tucked to the chin |
[02:24.17] |
Sitting in a straw chair |
[02:26.94] |
Hair like golden sun |
[02:30.60] |
Love you in the firelight |
[02:32.98] |
Love you in the dark |
[02:36.17] |
Think one day I'll tell you |
[02:39.14] |
That accidents can spark |
[02:42.39] |
A trail of life's destruction |
[02:45.55] |
A fissure of intent |
[02:48.62] |
A comfort blanket hanging |
[02:51.77] |
For every crisis spent |
[02:54.90] |
Think one day I'll tell you |
[02:57.76] |
I'll catch you from behind |
[03:00.88] |
Cover eyes to trick you |
[03:04.50] |
Guessing will decide |
[03:44.67] |
The ash is like my brother |
[03:47.51] |
He took the lazy path |
[03:50.59] |
To summer and the good life |
[03:53.68] |
The last leaf in the park |
[03:56.92] |
A wise old head on shoulders |
[03:59.92] |
On boards of adamant |
[04:03.80] |
He watched us by the river |
[04:06.90] |
He watched us in the dusk |
[04:09.33] |
Ribbons fell from your hair |
[04:12.34] |
They came down from the war |
[04:15.37] |
The drunks fell out of houses |
[04:18.42] |
The food of love would flow |
[04:21.50] |
And just then for the one day |
[04:24.53] |
Beneath the tree of joy |
[04:27.61] |
We were equal in our beauty |
[04:30.74] |
To the sunset girls and boys |
[04:33.83] |
You're too cool to rush in |
[04:36.99] |
Which lover could it be |
[04:40.14] |
A politician's silence |
[04:43.49] |
Will be the death of me |
