And Also The Trees - The Beautiful Silence lyrics

rate me

I came upon a house

In a place I'd never been before

All painted white and open doors

With the sunlight dancing on the floor

I saw the wind in the spring trees

Smelt the poplar and the sun's heat

And the meadows lie sleeping.

I found myself in a pale room

With a bolted door

And a beautiful silence

I saw a woman lying there

With the sunlight entwined in her auburn hair

And through the window floated many things

Photographs and letters and her wedding ring

And a child voice speaking.

I came upon a house

Somewhere I'd never been before

And in this lace of light and dark

I feel my heart sing joyously inside me.
