English Trees - Crowded House

English trees in my garden
they planted seeds in a faraway land
in between the palms and succulent grow
they loose their leaves in the winter
mark the seasons for him and for her

Once upon a time in the fallen snow
up against the sky made a silhouette show
English cries and she plays for him
Her cords entwined like a requiem
and though its springtime and colour is new
in Regents park i will mourn for you
and i must be wise somehow
coz my hearts been broken down
its so far to fall and so hrd to climb
nothing sadder i now

than the passing of time

you wont forget me
you wont forget me

like english trees in my garden
summers missed you my darling
all your crimes are forgiven
all your crimes are forgiven
and i must be wise somehow

you wont forget me
you wont forget me

and england cries
theres english trees in my garden
