Big Trees Lyrics
written by Sabine Heusler-Schick © 2008
I see myself in the old man’s eyes
lily white neck of the girl I sat behind
on the bus
the eternal lines
the black of the night as I ride
I see myself in the in pain of the fingers
of the boy in the super market isle
of the girl reading
of the coffee
of the spoon
as she twists her hair
Where do I go from here
Where do I go from here
I never used the feather I found
to make the quill
to write you love letters
but I said everything that I felt
and meant it
Where do we go from here
Where do we go from here
I’ll not lie,
I’ll not run,
I’ll not leave until I’m done
Big Trees sway
from the ground up
Big trees sway
Big trees sway
I see myself in every person I see
I see you I see you in me
and we said everything that we felt
and meant it
Where do we go from here
Where do we go from here
Where do we go from here
