Songtext von If I Were a Tree

If i were a tree i'd shake you off, Who needs all those dying leaves? I'd follow my roots to the underground, Drink wine with all the thieves. If i were a tree i'd give you wood, Make you a dendrophiliac. I'd have a laugh because i could; Oh, my knots and twists are not for that. Uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere i belong In the winter when my limbs are so bare Uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere i belong In the winter when my limbs are so bare If i were a tree i would age so the well; I'd watch the years paint on your face Follow my roots to the underground, Watch you disappear without a trace. Uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere i belong In the winter when my limbs are so bare Uproot me from the ground and plant me somewhere i belong In the winter when my limbs are so bare In the winter when my limbs are so bare
