The Drinking Tree Lyrics - Ben Christophers

There's a hiss from the highway 

Snakes her hips into everybody's ears 

Don't think i've heard silence for years 

And i could have sworn i saw you 

Walking down the cobbled stones 

Beneath the leaning trees yesterday 

I know you sailed away some time ago 

But we come here to listen to you comfort us 

With your lullaby 

Underneath the drinking tree 

We sail away with our friends 

The cemetery is alive tonight 

The disappeared the gruesome and the strays 

We are invisible ink 

As beautiful as you now 

There's a sound in your voice 

There's a place in your everlasting words 

Yet i don't have a clear belief 

Yet i could have sworn i heard you sing to me 

From my headphones deep into my head like pill
