[00:14.928]Last night I dreamt you very near
[00:19.764]Though the night was dark beyond the glass
[00:24.689]I knew you'd left before I woke
[00:29.823]But you'd fogged the window when you passed
[00:34.989]The air was still and smelled like rain
[00:39.383]Though I'd never known so dry a spell
[00:44.418]And what I heard there in the dark
[00:49.683]Are the secrets I will never tell
[00:54.311]There is a tree beyond this world
[00:58.829]In it's ancient roots a song is curled
[01:03.346]I'm the fool whose life's been spent
[01:08.084]Between what's said and what is meant
[01:11.505]
[01:24.348]I didn't mean what went so wrong
[01:28.975]Some things I wish I didn't know
[01:33.938]I've always lived inside my head
[01:39.722]And often utterly alone
[01:44.210]I will be a pillow for your head
[01:48.983]You can make me promises you can't keep
[01:54.271]And I'll believe each word you've said
[01:59.178]And hum to you while you sleep
[02:03.922]There is a tree beyond this world
[02:08.356]In it's ancient roots a song is curled
[02:12.702]I'm the fool whose life's been spent
[02:17.564]Between what's said and what is meant
[02:20.827]
[02:34.063]You took me by my shaking hand
[02:38.997]Laughed at me and closed the door
[02:43.575]And you put your hands to my waist
[02:48.937]And you waltzed me around the kitchen floor
[02:53.853]There is a tree beyond this world
[02:58.338]In it's ancient roots a song is curled
[03:02.609]I'm the fool whose life's been spent
[03:07.437]Between what's said and what is meant
[03:10.456]
[03:24.007]So I will wander without fail
[03:28.783]In circles that grow ever wide
[03:33.309]The sky expands and then exhales
[03:38.668]With an ache that never will subsides
[03:43.439]There is a tree beyond this world
[03:48.005]In it's ancient roots a song is curled
[03:52.302]I'm the fool whose life's been spent
[03:57.147]Between what's said and what is meant
