๐ Lyrics
If a tree falls in love with a river
'Cause the sun makes her golden and bright
Can the tree understand and forgive her
For the darkness she carries at night?
For the darkness she carries at night?
If the Spring paints her eyes green with laughter
And the winds brush her hair from the skies
Will he love her as well moments after
In the winter when everything dies?
In the winter when everything dies?
And would he notice her face when it changes
And her water turns into a sea?
Or would he deem her a liar, a stranger?
Praise forever who she used to be
Praise forever who she used to be
'Cause a tree stands too still for a river
And a river's too wild for a tree
Would he cut off his roots to be with her?
Would she ever give up on the sea?
Would she ever give up on the sea?
Would he aim to maintain his desire
For a swamp that can no longer dance?
If he were to be thrown in the fire
In her eyes he would not stand a chance
In her eyes he would not stand a chance
But in the fall he could send from a distance
Leaves of red so they dance on her hips
And she could show him proof of her existence
When the summer rain kisses his lips
When the summer rain kisses his lips
'Cause a tree stands too still for a river
And a river's too wild for a tree
He would not cut his roots to be with her
And she'd never give up on the sea
She would never give up on the sea
'Cause the sun makes her golden and bright
Can the tree understand and forgive her
For the darkness she carries at night?
For the darkness she carries at night?
If the Spring paints her eyes green with laughter
And the winds brush her hair from the skies
Will he love her as well moments after
In the winter when everything dies?
In the winter when everything dies?
And would he notice her face when it changes
And her water turns into a sea?
Or would he deem her a liar, a stranger?
Praise forever who she used to be
Praise forever who she used to be
'Cause a tree stands too still for a river
And a river's too wild for a tree
Would he cut off his roots to be with her?
Would she ever give up on the sea?
Would she ever give up on the sea?
Would he aim to maintain his desire
For a swamp that can no longer dance?
If he were to be thrown in the fire
In her eyes he would not stand a chance
In her eyes he would not stand a chance
But in the fall he could send from a distance
Leaves of red so they dance on her hips
And she could show him proof of her existence
When the summer rain kisses his lips
When the summer rain kisses his lips
'Cause a tree stands too still for a river
And a river's too wild for a tree
He would not cut his roots to be with her
And she'd never give up on the sea
She would never give up on the sea
