​cherry tree by thebreathingbackwards Lyrics

[Verse 1: thebreathingbackwards]
My lips remember how you taste
Oh, how could they forget?
I still can't look you in the face
And swallow my regret
It's all too much for me to take
I know you never wanted this
But now I'm burning at my stake
I'm still dreaming of your kiss

[Chorus: thebreathingbackwards]
So if you're alright, I'll let you be
But every night is torturing me
And I'll never say what you meant to me
I guess I'll decay under your cherry tree

[Verse 2: paper rose haiku]
Can't find the words to say
So I'm searching for a melody
To undo the hold you've got on me
I'm captive like the tide waves to the moon
Even in my dreams there's no escaping
How deep you've dug your roots
I feel you in my soul
I feel you on this lonesome afternoon
But if you're okay, I'll be alright
All I ever wanted was to feel your light
As long as you're happy
I will go quiet, back into the shadow
My favourite disguise
[Chorus: thebreathingbackwards]
So if you're alright, I'll let you be
But every night is torturing me
And I'll never say what you meant to me
I guess I'll decay under your cherry tree
(I guess I'll decay under your cherry tree)
