Lyrics The Tree - Blitzen Trapper , Alela Diane
When
your
love
rains
down,
just
like
diamonds
all
around
A
strange
and
changing
sound,
a
transformation
in
the
ground
The
great
and
winding
tree,
splits
the
Earth
from
sea
to
sea
And
my
lover
comes
to
me,
bids
me
follow
endlessly
As
she
laughs
and
starts
to
climb,
through
the
branches
and
the
binds
Through
the
tangle
of
our
minds,
for
this
tree,
you
see,
it
grows,
never
ending
When
your
love
flows
free,
just
the
way
it's
meant
to
be
All
these
chains
that
bind,
I
find
I
quickly
leave
behind
And
all
the
Earth
below,
seems
a
thin
and
fleeting
snow
And
my
father,
I
can
see,
is
further
up
upon
the
tree
And
his
beard
is
made
of
bees,
dancing
wildly
in
the
leaves
And
my
lover
says
to
me,
"You
must
be
blind
if
you're
to
see,
Must
walk
behind
if
you're
to
lead,
Must
be
the
soil
to
the
seed,
neverending."
For
I
feel
the
years,
like
distant
gears,
may
turn
and
come
to
rest,
Where
they
dwell
within
my
chest,
let
my
spirt
coalesce,
Yes,
and
death
is
dressed
in
colors
blessed,
A
mystery
I
confess
I
cannot
see
When
your
love
rains
down,
the
sound
of
singing
so
prefound,
Fills
the
ground
so
deep,
like
a
weeping
mother's
sleep
And
as
a
baby's
breath,
whispers
death
so
none
can
hear
And
I
pass
the
ancient
seer,
entering
the
atmosphere
In
a
tree
that
never
ends,
with
my
lover
and
our
friends
Entering
the
black
of
space,
we
replace
the
stars
that
shine,
Neverending
