Why do you whisper, green grass Why tell the trees what ain't so? Whispering grass The trees don't have to know Why tell them all your secrets Who kissed there long ago? Whispering grass The trees don't need to know Now don't you tell it to the breeze 'Cos she will tell it to the trees And everyone will know Because you told them once before Yes, you told them once before It's no secret anymore Why tell them all the old things They're buried under the snow Whispering grass don't tell the trees 'Cos the trees don't need to know Why tell them all your secrets Who kissed there long ago? Whispering grass The trees don't need to know Now don't you tell it to the breeze 'Cos she will run and tell it to the trees And everyone will know 'Cause you told them once before Yes, you told them once before That's no, no secret anymore Why tell them all the old things They're buried under the snow Whispering grass don't tell the trees 'Cos the trees don't need to know
