Swing Tree |
| If I was a boy at sea |
| I would be swinging from a broken tree |
| I would be down on my back looking up at stars at night |
| And if I could get back to reach, to reach the saltiest of evergreens |
| You know that I would turn back just to fight the whites of iron eyes |
| When I hear that wind and I think of Spring |
| Underneath an open window a carved out sign and |
| Often I would fight with my mind |
| Saltwater brine where you hung your crown |
| When you washed your eyes in last night’s tea |
| I thought you might come out from the dream to find that |
| Underneath the pine grew a patch of thyme |
| That I burned for six days in the sun |
| 'til I heard the distant sound of drums |
| Oh the queen had come and the King had died |
| And my forehead burned but I closed my eyes |
| And my forehead burned but I closed my eyes |
| Before I go I’ve got to run, down the street to the market cove where I could |
| Find six seeds to bring back to the yard and plant underneath the birch tree |
| No white skies or red sunlight |
| In the saltwater brine |
| My forehead burned but I closed my eyes |
| Whoa. |
| Now you’ve got to go |
