Tears of the Trees

Through the dark forest Between the green trees Stay and listen what they say Dejection in their voices No hope in their cries Hear their song with a tear in your eye Leaves are falling One by one Soon we'll know what we have done And the time will come Not far away When we're on the run Don't dare to stay But there's no chance to escape When the tears of the trees Falling down on earth Now it's time to return [Chorus:] The tears of the trees Rolling round the world The last cry - the last hope Hear the deadly silence Deep in their song - the cry of life Stay and listen what they say And the time will come When the children say to their mom: "I've never seen the colour green !" [Chorus:] When the tears of the trees Falling down on earth Now it's time to return The tears of the trees Rolling round the world The last cry - the last hope
