  • Speaking with trees
    Speaking of my grief
    Speaking with trees
    I'm almost sure
    That they are grieving
    With me

    When you left
    Emptiness
    Since you left

    I've been hiding your ashes
    Under the tree house
    Don't be surprised
    I cannot let you go
    You will be safe here
    Safe in the tree house
    They will protect you
    Of this
    I am sure

    How am I coping
    Losing
    Speaking with trees
    I'm almost sure
    They are igniting memories
    For me

    When you left
    Emptiness
    Since you left

    I've been hiding your ashes
    Under the tree house
    Don't be surprised
    I cannot let you go
    You will be safe here
    Safe in the tree house
    They will protect you
    Of this
    I am sure

    You only know when you know this
    You only know when you know this
    You only know when you know this
    How you'll cope with your losses

    Feel their arms around you
    Feel their arms around me
    Speaking
    Speaking
