Dave matws band - The Dreaming Tree слова песни
(Matthews/Lessard)
Standing here
The old man said to me
"Long before these crowded streets
Here stood my dreaming tree"
Below it he would sit
For hours at a time
Now progress takes away
What forever took to find
Now he`s falling hard
He feels the falling dark
How he longs to be
Beneath his dreaming tree
Conquered fear to climb
A moment froze in time
When the girl who first he kissed
Promised him she`d be his
Remembered mother`s words
There beneath the tree
"No matter what the world
You`ll always be my baby"
Mommy come quick
The dreaming tree has died
The air is growing thick
A fear he cannot hide
The dreaming tree has died
Oh have you no pity
This thing I do
I do not deny it
All through this smile
As crooked as danger
I do not deny
I know in my mind
I would leave you now
If I had the strength to
I would leave you up
To your own devices
Will you not talk
Can you take pity
I don`t ask much
But won`t you speak
Please
From the start
She knew she had it made
Easy up `til then
For sure she`d make the grade
Adorers came in hordes
To lay down in her wake
She gave it all she had
But treasures surely fade
Now she`s falling hard
She feels the fall of dark
How did this fall apart
She drinks to fill it up
A smile of sweetest flowers
Wilted so and soured
Black tears stain the cheeks
That once were so admired
She thinks when she was small
There on he father`s knee
How he had promised her
"You`ll always be my baby"
"Daddy come quick
The dreaming tree has died
I can`t find my way home
There is no place to hide
The dreaming tree has died"
Oh if I had the strength...
Take me back
Save me please
