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
