Times are old, grey in your eyes, grey in your eyes, And all those days, we'd run for our lives, run for our lives, Seems to me, we didn't try, we didn't try.
You Heavy Tree, You Endless Flame, You Spinning Wheel, You...
The distant lines, no eye can see, no eye can see, Until the rain, highlights the seam, highlights the seam, The cracks we hate, are chasing us down, chasing us down.
You Heavy Tree, You Endless Flame, You Spinning Wheel, You...
You Heavy Tree, weeping willow of the mid-west county, You Endless Flame, until I go out and amidst the unseen, You Spinning Wheel, weaving the web, leaving the web.
And now the years grow slowly, Lonely seed finds it's stem, Trust in time to pay it's due, Dew that drops helps the living.
You Heavy Tree, weeping willow of the mid-west county, You Endless Flame, until I go out and amidst the unseen, You Spinning Wheel, weaving the web, leaving the web.
