Time - Haunted Sycamore Tree

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1934403
I made friends with a haunted sycamore tree
We talked about birds and nests and the changing of leaves
She said don't worry about my ghosts they're apart of me
She took a piece of her bark and said here make some tea
Transcendent fire, I boiled the water
She told me bout the seasonal wars with beavers and otters
I said damn, she laughed and pardoned the pun
I sipped the tеa gently, it healed my lungs
Thе steam of the tea wrote in calligraphy
The cursive was fleeting but there was a message for me
I can't describe it with words if i tried it'd be a book
Maybe staring at a sunset while eternity looks?
She said trees don't die, their light goes dim
And even when they're just a stump we send nutrients to them
She said my branches are antennas they're much more than limbs
She said we're all part of earth we're much more than friends
She didn't use words more like telepathic hymns
Vibrational emotions like the voice of violins
Ancient mariner through these rimes I swim
Patient with the derringer the reaper grins
I won't catch a fade the cross hairs won't win
Catcher in the Rye but I harvest within
Crop circles in the sky in a Fibonacci spiral
The sun goes down the moon blooms on arrival
I asked if trees were like hotels for birds?
She said you think give and take in possession and worth
She said hotels are property and they cost a fee
What's a market but a thief? what's lack but grief?
What's death but commodity? money's from a chopped tree
Before a bank robbery, the forest had a robbery
I once saw a mansion, all I saw was poverty
The greatest crime is when they stole curiosity
She said human means clay you're the planet's pottery
The earth spins and we grow her clouds come and water me
She said we were one I didn't charge you for tea
I learn from you and you learn from me
Each one, teach one, that's reciprocity
Each one, teach one, that's reciprocity
Each one, teach one, that's reciprocity
Each one, teach one, that's reciprocity
Paulo's Path

Biography

edit bio
Time was a rock band from Yugoslavia that made a significant impact on the music scene in the 1970s. Formed in 1971 by Dado Topić, who had previously been a member of Korni Grupa, the band quickly gained a following with their unique blend of progressive rock and jazz influences.

The original lineup of Time included Dado Topić on vocals, Tihomir “Pop” Asanović on organ, Vedran Božić on guitar, Mario Mavrin on bass, Ratko Divjak on drums, and Brane Lambert Živković on piano and flute. Over the years, the lineup changed frequently, but the core members remained dedicated to creating innovative and captivating music.

Time released three albums during their time together, each showcasing their musical versatility and talent. Their first album featured a prominent Hammond organ, piano, and flute, while their second album had a harder sound with several ballads. The third album introduced a jazz-funk production style, further expanding their musical repertoire.

Some of Time's most popular songs include “Da li znaš da te volim”, “Rock ‘n’ roll u Beogradu”, and “Istina mašina”, which showcased their ability to create memorable and engaging music that resonated with audiences.

After disbanding in late 1977, Dado Topić embarked on a successful solo career, but the legacy of Time continued to live on. In 1998 and 2001, the band reunited for a limited number of live concerts, delighting fans with their timeless music and energetic performances.

Today, Time still plays together as a rock trio, continuing to captivate audiences with their unique sound and enduring musical legacy. Their influence can be heard in the work of many contemporary artists, solidifying their place in the history of Yugoslavian rock music.
