Cactus Tree (Live) [2022 Remaster] Joni Mitchell

[Verse 1]
There's a man who's been out sailing
In a decade full of dreams
And he takes her to a schooner
And he treats her like a queen
Bearing beads from California
With their amber stones and their green

[Chorus]
He has called her from the harbor
He has kissed her with his freedom
He has heard her off to starboard
In the breaking and the breathing of the water weeds
And she's so busy being free

[Verse 2]
There's a man who's climbed a mountain
And he's calling out her namе
And he hopes her hеart can hear
Three thousand miles, he calls again
He can think her there beside him
He can miss her just the same

[Chorus]
He has missed her in the forest
While he showed her all the flowers
And the branches sang the chorus
As he climbed the scaly towers of a forest tree
While she was somewhere being free
