Silver Trees
[Verse 1]
Someone, somewhere, says something
That somehow made me think
Of sometimes down by the waterhole
The lion stops to drink
There have been many times I thought of moving
Down to silver trees
Where all those hummingbirds sit
Humming to a choir of honeybees

[Chorus]
Beneath the silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees

[Verse 2]
Whatever happened to the Sun
I knew that something wasn't right
Because the rain was hot and yet the snow
Lay white in the moonlight
[Chorus]
Under the silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees

[Verse 3]
Now listen
Just before we found ourselves beneath the silver trees
A buzzing swarm of blind mosquitoes brought us to our knees
We crawled and crawled as fast as one can crawl
In fifty hot degrees
And after many hours and lots of pounds
The air began to freeze

[Chorus]
Under the silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
[Verse 4]
There have been many times I thought of moving
Down to silver trees
Where all those hummingbirds sit
Humming to a choir of honeybees

[Chorus]
Beneath the silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees
Silver trees...
