english trees

Lyrics

english trees in my garden, they planted seeds in a faraway land, in between the palms and the succulent grow, they lose their leaves in the winter, mark the seasons for him and for her, once upon a time in the fallen snow, up against the sky made a silhouette show, england cries and she plays for him, her chords entwined like a requiem, and though it's springtime and color is new, in regent's park i will mourn for you, and i must be wise somehow, 'cause my heart's been broken down, it's so far to fall, and so hard to climb, nothing sadder i know, than the passing of time, you won't forget me, you won't forget me, like english trees in my garden, summer's missed you my darling, all your crimes are forgiven, all your crimes are forgiven, and i must be wise somehow, and england cries, there's english trees in my garden
