lyrics
I saw you in the treetops,
drifting away with the wind.
You were rustling in the leaves,
you were disappearing.
And I built myself a house,
with the branches and the leaves
of the trees that I last saw you in.
And the floorboards creak
under every step I take.
And the ceiling leaks
almost every time it rains.
But still, it keeps me warm.
And I built myself a house,
with the branches and the leaves
of the trees that I last saw you in.
And still, it keeps me warm.
I never quite knew,
and I never felt you.
And I never quite knew what to make of this,
and I never felt you on the back of my neck.
