[Verse 1]
The trees full of new leaves
Offering green tears to the earth
To be picked and split
The tell of green of what's fair and unfair
Between the twigs, cassette tape drapes
His silent songs let melody loose in layers of heartache
[Pre-Chorus]
Trees are full, are full of new leaves
Offering me, offering green tears
Trees are full, are full of new leaves
Offering me, offering green tears
[Chorus]
Holy song
Of all the words he sang
Oh, let this one song he sung
Be about, be about me
[Verse 2]
And I was ashamed of my green eyes
I cried and I moaned for blue like hers
I wish the black dog's eye was not with me day and night
I spat apple pips back at the soil
Pressed the dirt down with the bite of my heel
And wished for another colour to spoil to repeal
The trees full of new leaves
Offering green tears to the earth
To be picked and split
The tell of green of what's fair and unfair
Between the twigs, cassette tape drapes
His silent songs let melody loose in layers of heartache
[Pre-Chorus]
Trees are full, are full of new leaves
Offering me, offering green tears
Trees are full, are full of new leaves
Offering me, offering green tears
[Chorus]
Holy song
Of all the words he sang
Oh, let this one song he sung
Be about, be about me
[Verse 2]
And I was ashamed of my green eyes
I cried and I moaned for blue like hers
I wish the black dog's eye was not with me day and night
I spat apple pips back at the soil
Pressed the dirt down with the bite of my heel
And wished for another colour to spoil to repeal
