Lyrics
Hear the wind whispering through the leaves
The fingers and the toes of the Mother Tree
She knows her saplings and her own young
Innate like the songs in only her love tongue
Be yourself, be free,
Breathe out, lie next to me
Come to me, come to me
Come to me, come to me
Come to me, come to me
I spread my roots, unfold my leaves
Like a Mother Tree
Lose the chains of your every fear
My thirsty vines, let them draw you near
As I run across your dreams, your dark
Such a gentle touch, on your skin and your bark
Be yourself, be free,
Breathe out, lie next to me
Come to me, come to me
Come to me, a mother tree
I spread my roots, unfold my leaves
I spread my roots, like the Mother Tree
