Crown of Leaves by Rikard Sjblom Lyrics
The softness of the wind
Playing in the glade
Singing for the leaves
We hear that familiar melody
And that's when they come
That's when they come
It's not a ghost
It's not a man or a beast
It's just a thought
That will manifest
See me look at you
In this haunted place
Where our minds
Set themselves free
And then you call my name
From far away
But you're right here smiling
..so far away
But you're right here grinning
I built it too high
I started 15 feet from the ground
...and now you want me down
Only those I invite can come inside
We take turns to wear the crown
It's made of leaves
This is my house now
The trees and I have become one
When I close my eyes see the face of
The boy I once was
There's no one to blame
For who we became
You and I, we're already there
We are the softness of the wind
Playing in the glade
Singing for the leaves
I can't help it
I still return here in my mind
To the tree house in the glade
You're the one who's
Etched into my soul
Way back then we would run
Without a goal
While everything around me fades away
I'm writing you a song
I'm writing you this love song
My friend
I'm writing you a song
I've been waiting for this day
Playing in the glade
Singing for the leaves
We hear that familiar melody
And that's when they come
That's when they come
It's not a ghost
It's not a man or a beast
It's just a thought
That will manifest
See me look at you
In this haunted place
Where our minds
Set themselves free
And then you call my name
From far away
But you're right here smiling
..so far away
But you're right here grinning
I built it too high
I started 15 feet from the ground
...and now you want me down
Only those I invite can come inside
We take turns to wear the crown
It's made of leaves
This is my house now
The trees and I have become one
When I close my eyes see the face of
The boy I once was
There's no one to blame
For who we became
You and I, we're already there
We are the softness of the wind
Playing in the glade
Singing for the leaves
I can't help it
I still return here in my mind
To the tree house in the glade
You're the one who's
Etched into my soul
Way back then we would run
Without a goal
While everything around me fades away
I'm writing you a song
I'm writing you this love song
My friend
I'm writing you a song
I've been waiting for this day
