Lyrics Tree Of Tule - Daniel Lanois

Tree Of Tule

Traveler I want to break free
Is there something out there for me
Where I go that’s where I stay
At the thousand year old Tree of Tule
If your head is down
And you’ve been hurt
It will bring you home
To touch the earth
Traveler what did you find
Did you lose your heart, courage and mind
Wandering into the dark
I saw fields of fire from a spark
The wind she rose
And carried the flame
To the river
And there washed my name
Wrinkles and rings
My testimony of the time
Under your shadow
You sheltered me in your arms
Standing there in awe of your splendor
Like sweet communion It floods my soul
Traveler I want to be free
Is there something out there for me
Where I go that’s where I stay
At the thousand year old Tree of Tule
If your head is down
And you’ve been hurt It will bring you home
To touch the earth
