Lyrics

[00:07.66] City shoes found ways down green fertile valleys
[00:11.92] See I never could fall down straight in line so sure
[00:14.20] Someone with a thing to say writes on a leaf and lets it fall onto my feet
[00:21.36] I receive the news so small a child who cannot understand
[00:28.28] I can't hear and I don't know
[00:30.13] And the wind slows down so
[00:31.66] Still a tree's a tree!
[00:43.73] So calm and for a moment it makes sense
[00:46.56] But the tree says "la la"
[00:48.42] And the language is strange the woman's "wa wa"
[00:55.72] Am I too bored to understand?
[01:02.85] Well good, I'm done
[01:04.60] Off to the wild for me
[01:07.13] In the green wild I am gone
[01:08.72] My hands, toes, shoulders gone
[01:10.22] But the shoes my feet have worn still remain
[01:13.91] And they walk toward the sea
[01:18.33] There's a flavor to the sound of walking no one ever noticed before
[02:12.71] There's a humor in the way they walk
[02:22.69] Even a flower walks
[02:26.30] But doesn't look for me
[02:32.66] It walks just as it's grown
[02:36.59] It's laughing so naturally
[04:07.87] It tells me a tree's a tree
