There's a ring of trees
By the side of the road
By the side of the road
There's a ring of trees
Here the whispers there
The whisper of the leaves
Falling to the ground
The ground beneath your knees
I walk through the walls
To watch you undress
I'm under your bed
I'm under your desk
There's a ring of trees
By the side of the road
By the side of the road
There's a ring of trees
Let the babies cry
Let the branches bow
Let the witches howl
Let's the lights go out
How I want to be
In your company
Under the canopy
Of the ring of trees
So meet me tonight
In the ring of trees
There's a ring of trees
By the side of the road
By the side of the road
There's a ring of trees
Winter's coming down
Birds are leaving town
The moon is coming up
Light without a sound
Let the river flow
Let the four winds know
Let my two legs take me
As fast as they can go
How I want to be
In your company
Under the canopy
Of the ring of trees
So meet me tonight
In the ring of trees
