Greenwoods Bethlehem

We ran for the Greenwoods Bethlehem,
when the rain came,
how the rain came.
We hide our love beneath the trees
that gave us shelter,
gave us shade.

Can we please just talk it over, love?
Won't you help me out
with all of these things
that I can't talk about,
things we're both so afraid of?
Don't you leave me out here alone.
Please don't leave me out here alone.

So many things I try to tell you,
so many things I try to say.
But my words all fall like empires,
into the ocean.
Like an ancient language
we both used to know,
only you and I used to know,
that's no longer spoken.

Now it only rains out in the shade,
where our shelter used to be.
Alone in the dark,
at the Greenwoods Bethlehem,
baby, I just fall at your feet.

I still love you now as I always did,
but broken promises tore us apart.
I used to know you well,
you used to know me well,
but I lost you somewhere,
somewhere I slept.

So many things I try to tell you,
so many things I try to say.
But my words all fall like empires,
into the ocean.
Like an ancient language
we both used to know,
only you and I used to know,
that's no longer spoken.

Now it only rains out in the shade,
where our shelter used to be.
Alone in the dark,
at the Greenwoods Bethlehem,
baby, I just fall at your feet.

Now it only rains out in the shade,
where our shelter used to be.
Alone in the dark,
at the Greenwoods Bethlehem,
baby, I just fall at your feet.

Things are different, love, between you and I.
I still call out your name,
through the cold of my days
and through the heat of the night.
Through the heat of the night.
Through the heat of the night.
Through the heat of the night.

Now it only rains out in the shade,
where our shelter used to be.
Alone in the dark,
at the Greenwoods Bethlehem,
baby, I just fall at your feet.

Now it only rains out in the shade,
where our shelter used to be.
Alone in the dark,
at the Greenwoods Bethlehem,
baby, I just fall at your feet.
