[00:14.928] Last night I dreamt you very near
[00:19.764] Though the night was dark beyond the glass
[00:24.689] I knew you'd left before I woke
[00:29.823] But you'd fogged the window when you passed
[00:34.989] The air was still and smelled like rain
[00:39.383] Though I'd never known so dry a spell
[00:44.418] And what I heard there in the dark
[00:49.683] Are the secrets I will never tell
[00:54.311] There is a tree beyond this world
[00:58.829] In it's ancient roots a song is curled
[01:03.346] I'm the fool whose life's been spent
[01:08.084] Between what's said and what is meant
[01:11.505]
[01:24.348] I didn't mean what went so wrong
[01:28.975] Some things I wish I didn't know
[01:33.938] I've always lived inside my head
[01:39.722] And often utterly alone
[01:44.210] I will be a pillow for your head
[01:48.983] You can make me promises you can't keep
[01:54.271] And I'll believe each word you've said
[01:59.178] And hum to you while you sleep
[02:03.922] There is a tree beyond this world
[02:08.356] In it's ancient roots a song is curled
[02:12.702] I'm the fool whose life's been spent
[02:17.564] Between what's said and what is meant
[02:20.827]
[02:34.063] You took me by my shaking hand
[02:38.997] Laughed at me and closed the door
[02:43.575] And you put your hands to my waist
[02:48.937] And you waltzed me around the kitchen floor
[02:53.853] There is a tree beyond this world
[02:58.338] In it's ancient roots a song is curled
[03:02.609] I'm the fool whose life's been spent
[03:07.437] Between what's said and what is meant
[03:10.456]
[03:24.007] So I will wander without fail
[03:28.783] In circles that grow ever wide
[03:33.309] The sky expands and then exhales
[03:38.668] With an ache that never will subsides
[03:43.439] There is a tree beyond this world
[03:48.005] In it's ancient roots a song is curled
[03:52.302] I'm the fool whose life's been spent
[03:57.147] Between what's said and what is meant
