Subject: Lyr Add: I LOVE THE TREES (John Spillane)
Here are the lyrics for "I Love The Trees" by Nomos.


I love the trees
The willow, the hazel
The apple tree, the blackthorn
The silver birch trees
Standing in the moonlight
I love them all

I love their talk
Their rustling, their sighing
All their leaves, shaking in the breeze
Their crazy branches reaching for the sunlight
I love the trees
The willow, the hazel
The apple tree, the blackthorn
The silver birch trees
Standing in the moonlight
I love them all

I love a girl darker than the alder
I love a girl fairer than the rose
Like I love the trees
Standing on the hillside
The cold wind blows...

Before I fell
Out of childhood's country
Before I landed down on the forest floor
I knew the trees
The ash, the alder
The sycamore

I love the trees
The willow, the hazel
The apple tree, the blackthorn
The silver birch trees
Standing in the moonlight
I love them all...
