Lyrics
The Last Living Tree
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
For a thousand years they were standing here
Every kind was here, life was everywhere
Within their arms they held many things
Mended broken wings, sang like violins
As time wnet on they grew tall and strong
There for everyone to depend upon
Then the jewellers came to steal their rings
To make splendid things for queens and kings
CHORUS
How many broken hearts sleep through the night
That the eyes of the breaker don't see
And how many children will be lost in the fight
For the life of the last livin' tree
Someone said that life is short
But does that matter to anyone
