Lyrics
My tree, my darling Tree
You are so tall, oh so tall
The other shore
It’s too far to the other shore
And I can’t reach you
Even if I swim or run
I can’t reach you
Even if I turn into a mountain river or a soft grass
I can’t reach you
I had faith, oh how I believed
But couldn't save you
I couldn't save you
The other shores
There is only the silence
From the other shore
And I can’t reach you
Even if I swim or run
I can’t reach you
Even if I turn into a mountain river or a soft grass
I can’t reach you
