Gravenhurst - The Ice Tree lyrics

At six in the morning the ice in the tree thaws Into the millpond returns to the deep I caress where my lover once lay by my side Before I turned inwards and forced her to fly We try to connect with the people outside They pa** through our slumber Like trains in the night I caress where my lover once lay by my side Before I turned inwards and forced her to fly After the cold night the raindrops that froze Melt into the thin air Like the footsteps of ghosts I caress where my lover once lay by my side Before I turned inwards and forced her to fly For she could not know me For I know not myself And without understanding Love isn't enough
