lyrics

Can the branches hear the vine while it quietly slithers?
Through the roses, just above the roots, and below the leaves.
No blade of grass is low enough to observe as it sneaks.
Barely loud enough to stir, mingling with the hum of the forest.

Tendrils wrap around, inch by inch, rising with time like the tides.
Squeezing tighter every day, but when green blends with green, who can see the shade?
The ivy rises so far,
the tranquil peace of your arbor fades away.

Never a whisper from the birds or bees, while the thrum of the hive drones on.
Neither the bark, the soil, the rocks, the river, or the hills had tongues to ever say a word.
Not a creature in the woods could see, or offer one single warning to me, about the vine that was growing while I was climbing your tree.

Tendrils wrap around, inch by inch, rising with time like the tides.
Squeezing tighter every day, but when green blends with green, who can see the shade?
The ivy rises so far,
the tranquil peace of your arbor fades away.
