Lyrics Black Trees - Kim Richey

Black Trees

I don’t know where we’ll sleep tonight
Some place far from here
A few more miles, we’ll chase the light
While over our shoulders the world disappears
Black trees in winter stand
Shadows of their summer selves
Between the small towns stitched together by roads
To someplace else
We’re on our way to someplace else
A kind word now could break my heart
And the tears might never stop
And the ground is stony, cold, and hard
And I’ve stopped counting the days
And all that I’ve lost
Black trees in winter stand
Shadows of their summer selves
Between the small towns stitched together by roads
To someplace else
We’re on our way to someplace else
Far and away to someplace else
Someplace else
