Speaking With Trees - Tori Amos

Speaking with trees

Speaking of my grief

Speaking with trees

I’m almost sure

That they are grieving

With me

When you left

Emptiness

Since you left

I’ve been hiding your ashes

Under the tree house

Don’t be surprised

I cannot let you go

You will be safe here

Safe in the tree house

They will protect you

Of this

I am sure

How am I coping

Losing

Speaking with trees

I’m almost sure

That they’re igniting memories

For me

When you left

Emptiness

Since you left

I’ve been hiding your ashes

Under the tree house

Don’t be surprised

I cannot let you go

You will be safe here

Safe in the tree house

They will protect you

Of this

I am sure

You only know when you know this

You only know when you know this

You only know when you know this

How you’ll cope with your losses

Feel their arms around you

Feel their arms around me

Speaking

Speaking

Speaking with trees
