Hemlock Light

A tree once stood here
The first that I
Learned to climb

I'd peel the bark back
Every piece a
Treasure find

Then one day
I'm away
The tree comes down
That's all I'll say

A tree once stood here
The first that I
Learned to climb

And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it

A house once stood here
A house I used to
Call my home

With paper thin walls
And doors so thick with paint
They wouldn't close

Over time
Though we try
To stand in place
Life runs wild

A house once stood here
A house in which I
Don't reside

And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it

A girl once stood here
The first that I
Let inside

We'd peel the bark back
Every piece a
Treasure find

When I wrote
"I think I'm in love" I hoped
That the words I spoke
Would make her more than smile

A girl once stood here
The first that said
"So am I"

And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it.
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it.
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it.
And we're in Andrew's sitting room, sitting
There's a piano there, I've played it.
