Speaking with Trees by Tori Amos Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Speaking with trees
Speaking of my grief
Speaking with trees
I'm almost sure
That they are grieving
With me
[Pre-Chorus]
When you left
Emptiness
Since you left
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
How am I coping
Losing
Speaking with trees
I'm almost sure
They're igniting memories
For me
[Pre-Chorus]
When you left
Emptiness
Since you left
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Breakdown]
Feel their arms around you
Feel their arms around me
[Outro]
Speaking
Speaking
Speaking with trees
Speaking with trees
Speaking of my grief
Speaking with trees
I'm almost sure
That they are grieving
With me
[Pre-Chorus]
When you left
Emptiness
Since you left
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
How am I coping
Losing
Speaking with trees
I'm almost sure
They're igniting memories
For me
[Pre-Chorus]
When you left
Emptiness
Since you left
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Breakdown]
Feel their arms around you
Feel their arms around me
[Outro]
Speaking
Speaking
Speaking with trees
