Willow Tree (MTV Unplugged (Live In Melbourne)) Songtext
von Tash Sultana

′Cause I've been waiting for my time to appear to me
And tell the secrets of the willow tree
I heard your future rustles in the breeze
And carries rumors like the birds and the bees

And does it really put your mind at ease
To step back at the fact that you′re standing here
Right where you've always dreamed?

'Cause I had this vision before
When everybody comes a-knockin′ to my door
Took a moment to gather their senses
Clean the bullshit smeared right across their lenses


Blinded by the big, big lights and the talk so cheap
One time lucky at the top but the fall is steep
Hand-built the pyramid one by one
While you flew first class into the sun

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Where there′s smoke there's fire
Take me up just a little bit higher
Hot damn, try to rip off your plans
Win a free ride back to Neverland

Oh man, see, I don′t understand
But I can feel the rain peelin' pain from my hands
Open up the floodgates and let it pour in
Kill the ego ′cause you're never gonna win
