Lyrics

Stay Like the Trees
Davidson/Taylor
Years whisper nightsongs; moth against screen;
Hand beckons gently, as if in a dream.
Am I alive and what do I feel?
How much to trust, how much is real?

CH:
Oh, world of small moons, show me a way;
Stars flicker secrets and I want to stay,
Stay like the trees.

Everything changes; dawn and your eyes;
I wake up to snowfall; say my goodbyes.
What is the ending? You?re already gone.
Sunshine thaws nothing; winter is long.

CH

When you return, iris in bloom,
Taller than sagebrush; you fill up a room.
I?m yearning for decades; life harvests are brief;
Love is impatient; bright as a leaf.

CH
