A sad one today folks (Sorry)
I can't possibly imagine what It must be like for a loved one to go out in the morning, and never return because of a fatal accident, but it happens every day to too many people.
And so, this a song relating to such a tragedy.. The lyrics centred around the partner left and coming to terms with the fact she will never see the man she loved again, who was taken in an instant ,and her remembering the person he was... The environmental activist, passionate about saving the planet..who would have frowned upon so many cards of sympathy being sent to her because of trees being cut down....Hence the lyrics Go save the trees.
Anyway. Sometimes a sad song makes you think how precious life is and to never take those we hold so close for granted..We just never know what a day may bring...
LYRICS
Daytime TV, more cards through the door
I can you yell, ''Save the trees!''
Answer phone flashing, more snow on the ground.
you told me it was the worst you'd seen in years
And so i'll feed the birds, with the seed you left on the shelf
And i'll water the plant you bought last week
Then i'll lie in the blanket, that still smells of you
Pray that this world will leave me be
Caus I don't want any more, I don't need any more
Tea and sympathy
Folded corner in the page of your book
Wonder what happens at the end
Alarm clock set for your 6 am calls
The morning was always your best friend
And now i'll take my chance, that sleep may come my way
And i'll see your smile in my dreams
And you'll whisper to me, 'Keep fighting the good fight, go and save the trees ''
And i'll lie in the blanket, that still smells of you
And pray this world might leave me be
I don't want any more, I don't need any more..
Tea and sympathy
