Falling From The Tree Lyrics - Levellers

Well, I fell down from the tree of life 

Hit the branches on the way 

Yeah, way down to the root 

Found what's been bothering me 

And I'll tell you 

If you can hear above the din 

That I just can't get back 

To where I've been 

And if I ever found 

All that I wanted 

I've traveled the world 

All the way 'round 

If you ever gave me 

All I ever wanted 

I'd travel the world 

All the way 'round 

'Cause I just can't get back to where I've been 

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been 

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been 

No, I just can't get back to where I've been 

'Cause I know a place 

And I want to be there 

I read it in the poems 

On the way down 

There it lies 

The unchecked country 

Far beyond 

Spectacle of plains 

'Cause I just can't get back to where I've been 

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been 

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been 

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been 

Well, I fell down from the tree of life 

Hit the branches on the way 

Yeah, way down to the root 

Found what's been bothering me 

And I'll tell you 

If you can hear above the din 

No, I just can't get back 

To where I've been 

No, I just can't get back 

To where I've been 

'Cause I know a place 

And I want to be there 

I read it in the poems 

on the way down 

There it lies 

The unchecked country 

Far beyond 

Spectacle of plains 

'Cause I fell down from the tree of life 

Hit the branches on the way 

Yeah, way down to the root 

Found what's been bothering me 

And I'll tell you 

If you can hear above the din 

No, I just can't get back 

To where I've been 

No, I just can't get back to where I've been 

No, I just can't get back to where I've been 

No, I just can't get back to where I've been 

No, I just can't get back to where I've been 

If I ever found 

All that I wanted 

Be a beautiful dream 

This is a beautiful dream 

These are beautiful dreams
