Josienne Clarke - The Tangled Tree

Copied!edit Lyrics

Footsteps on the cold ground
Lead straight to your door
And the birds in my tangled tree
Sing of love but call to war

Beautiful birds are not meant to be caged
You should have been true to your wings
You should have flown away

So left my tangled tree
That once bore strong branches and leaves of green
But how cruel and inevitable the passing of time can be

This tangled tree
Watched every inch of its majesty fade
With fall of every leaf

It always seemed to call me
The crooked stoop, the bend and swoop
Of its complicatеd beauty

They cut it up to burn it down

Bright lights rise out and ovеr the fire

, casting shadows on the ground\r\nBut the memory of the tangled tree\r\nWill forever linger around\r\n\r\nIts branches may be gone\r\nBut its spirit still remains\r\nIn every note of the birds' song\r\nAnd in every whisper of the wind\r\n\r\nThe tangled tree may be no more\r\nBut its beauty will never fade\r\nA reminder of the passage of time\r\nAnd the resilience of nature's grace\r\n\r\nSo let the flames dance high\r\nAnd let the ashes fly\r\nFor the tangled tree will live on\r\nIn the hearts of those who heard its cry.
