From under a tree

lyrics

The Sky Is Green

It starts with a seed and the root breaks free
Open up your arms, unbend your knees
All new leaves
The sky is green

Unfurling the smallest sprout
Poetry before words had mouths
Before we waltzed between the trees, there were leaves, leaves, leaves
All new leaves

The sky is green, the sky is green
Lit with leaves, good and good and green

When we lost the plan and you smashed your phone
There were people right beside us that we got to get to know
Then the plane broke down on the runway
All we could say was this day we are not supposed to fall
We are not supposed to fall
We are green new leaves
All new leaves

The sky is green
The sky is green
Lit with leaves, good and good and green

They said you died of a rare disease
But April’s bride, I still see your leaves
All new leaves

The sky is green, the sky is green
Lit with leaves, good and good and green
