Their Names Are the Trees
I was dreading last July
And I've never seen it so dry
It was hard the last time I had to go
And it's one more reason why
I never called before I left
I thought that would be best
I couldn't lie and didn't want you to know
About the beating in my chest
Ohh It's all gone now
And some folks are just memories
Now the cinder has all burned out
And their names are the trees
On that night the wind would blow
I was asleep and dreamt about you
Radio blast took me fast from your arms
And I stared out upon the glow
Fire overtook the mountain
And came racing down our side
Best make best with wherever you'll rest
We might not make it out alive
Ohh it's all gone now
And some folks are just memories
And now the cinder has all burned out
And their names are the trees
Looking west, it's the same as the rest
When the water's all gone where can they go?
They cry for rain to the sky to stop the pain
And feed the ground so that hope can grow
Ohh it's all gone now
Some folks are just memories
And now the cinder is all burned out
And their names are the trees
And I've never seen it so dry
It was hard the last time I had to go
And it's one more reason why
I never called before I left
I thought that would be best
I couldn't lie and didn't want you to know
About the beating in my chest
Ohh It's all gone now
And some folks are just memories
Now the cinder has all burned out
And their names are the trees
On that night the wind would blow
I was asleep and dreamt about you
Radio blast took me fast from your arms
And I stared out upon the glow
Fire overtook the mountain
And came racing down our side
Best make best with wherever you'll rest
We might not make it out alive
Ohh it's all gone now
And some folks are just memories
And now the cinder has all burned out
And their names are the trees
Looking west, it's the same as the rest
When the water's all gone where can they go?
They cry for rain to the sky to stop the pain
And feed the ground so that hope can grow
Ohh it's all gone now
Some folks are just memories
And now the cinder is all burned out
And their names are the trees
