Felix

I follow trails that go where they please
I'll go where you hail
But I cannot tame these feet
I'm wind in your hair
I move over your skin down to your knees
Haven't you learned you cannot hold the breeze?

I keep etching our names in the barks of these trees
With the friends that I made in some old evergreens
And wind and the woods run away with the leaves
Until truth is still something I can believe

Take the branches but you leave the roots
Take the branches but you leave the roots
Pieces of you hiding beneath the pines

Take the branches but you leave the roots
Take the branches but you leave the roots
Pieces of you hiding beneath the pines

Take off your coat then you're ready to leave
You're never alone cause I am the soil beneath your bare feet
I should have known that loving a traveling soul
Would leave me with stones in place of a heart and body to hold
I'm the smell of the sun that is left on your skin
The salt of the tears that hand down from your chin
I hide in the cracks of the house that you live
Possess you like smoke when the space settles in

Take the branches but you leave the roots
Take the branches but you leave the roots
Pieces of you hiding beneath the pines

Take the branches but you leave the roots
Take the branches but you leave the roots
Pieces of you hiding beneath the pines
