Barcarola (you Must Be A Christmas Tree) Lyrics - Sufjan Stevens

Oh, no one else is happily 

Recklessly asking for more than 

What they may need 

I can't say what I need 

Oh, temper what you say if you've 

Nothing nice to say 

So my grandmother says to me 

With her heart on her sleeve 

So, sadly I left the door 

Open and I let the dog out in the snow 

Oh where did she go? 

Oh, father friend, will you punish me, punish me 

With a look of contempt, with a look of contempt

Who looked away 

With her hands on her face 

Don't run away my friend 

You won't be back again 

You said you needed me 

But I know that you needed yourself to be cleaned of me 

Photos 

Don't run away my friend 

You won't be back again 

You said you needed me 

But I know that you needed yourself to be cleaned of me 

Don't run away my friend 

You won't be back again 

You ran your hands through my hair in the snow 

Where the frost of it blows with the terrible ghost 

Don't run away my friend 

You won't be back again 

You said you needed me 

But I know...
