Whistling Trees - Virginia Man

Often I think this sad old world is whistling in the dark. Just like a child, who, late from school Walks bravely home through the park. To keep their spirits soaring And keep the night at bay. Neither quite knowing which way they are going, They sing the shadows away, Often I think my poor old heart has given up for good. And then I see a brand new face, I glimpse some new neighborhood. So walk me back home, my darling, Tell me dreams really come true. Whistling, whistling, Here in the dark with you. So walk me back home, my darling, Tell me dreams really come true. Whistling, whistling, Here in the dark with you.

I've been smokin' Mary Jane Been seeing shapes up in my head Of places that I've always seen and memories that never left Oh, they never left And oh, no, I've been gone for quite some time And I know that I just keep it in the back of my mind And as the moss clears up my lungs when I'm back home Oh, I'm reminded of how Oh, how I miss her, sitting out by the river Listening as the trees talk, all behind my back (yeah) Oh, I think I'll stay wherever the wind blows (blows) Let it come when I don't know, 'cause I don't know myself Anymore (Ooh, ooh, ooh) I'm just tryna to find myself (Ah-ooh, ooh, ooh) a little more And as I hook out on the waves I see white sails runnin' in the craze through the forest I'm trying to make proud of my name 'Cause I still don't have the strength to go back to my dad's grave And tell him everything, oh Oh, how I miss her, sitting out by the river Listening as the trees talk all behind my back (yeah) Oh, I think I'll stay wherever the wind blows Let it come when I don't know 'cause I don't know myself Anymore (Ah-ooh) hey, (ooh, ooh) I'm just tryna find myself (Ah-ooh) hey, (ooh, ooh) a little more Don't think that I could forget what you say You thought that I couldn't save you, but you can't get back the past 'Cause once it's left, it's left in flames and I'm too used to burnin' down (Oh-ooh, ooh, ooh) but now you're gone Oh, how I miss her, sitting out by the river Listening as the trees talk, all behind my back (yeah) Oh, I think I'll stay wherever the wind blows Let it come when I don't know 'cause I don't know myself Anymore

When I die will you put me Under the earth, under the oak trees If I die before the sun rises I'll be just fine right where I am 'Cause I know where I'm going I know where I'll be I know where I'm going So you don't cry about me 'Cause I'll be dancing, I'll be singing I'll be spinning 'round in circles I'll be jumping, I'll be screaming When I see that silver lining And I hope that you'll be with me someday So don't cry about me 'Cause I know where I'll be Start a fire with my guitar I used to play when I first started I won't have a need for things like that When I'm put six feet underground 'Cause I'll be dancing, I'll be singing I'll be spinning 'round in circles I'll be jumping, I'll be screaming When I see that silver lining And I hope that you'll be with me someday So don't cry about me 'Cause I know where I'll be I'm going to a place where cars and lights Won't keep me from my family late at night I'm going to a place where all my nights Aren't wasted losing sleep I'm going to a place where the love can thrive I'm going to a place where the cancer dies I'm going to a place where there is no shame And I can feel no pain Yeah, this is where I'll stay 'Cause I'll be so much more than under oak trees I'll be dancing, I'll be singing I'll be spinning round in circles I'll be jumping, I'll be screaming When I see that silver lining Yeah, I'll be dancing, I'll be singing I'll be spinning 'round in circles I'll be jumping, I'll be screaming When I see that silver lining And I hope that you'll be with me someday So don't cry about me 'Cause I know where I'll be

One, two, three Why are you hanging on so tight To the rope that I'm hanging from? Off this island, this was an escape plan (this was an escape plan) Carefully timed it, so let me go And dive into the waves below Who tends the orchards? Who fixes up the gables? Emotional torture from the head of your high table Who fetches the water from the rocky mountain spring? And walk back down again to feel your words and their sharp sting And I'm getting fucking tired The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ended, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour You make me do too much labour Apologies from my tongue, and never yours Busy lapping from flowing cup and stabbing with your fork I know you're a smart man (I know you're a smart man), and weaponise The false incompetence, it's dominance under a guise If we had a daughter, I'd watch and could not save her The emotional torture, from the head of your high table She'd do what you taught her, she'd meet the same cruel fate So now I've gotta run, so I can undo this mistake At least I've gotta try The capillaries in my eyes are bursting If our love died, would that be the worst thing? For somebody I thought was my saviour You sure make me do a whole lot of labour The calloused skin on my hands is cracking If our love ends, would that be a bad thing? And the silence haunts our bed chamber You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then a virgin, nurse then a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant Just an appendage, live to attend him So that he never lifts a finger 24-7, baby machine So he can live out his picket fence dreams It's not an act of love if you make her You make me do too much labour All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid (The capillaries in my eyes are bursting) Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant (If our love died, would that be the worst thing?) Just an appendage, live to attend him (For somebody I thought was my saviour) So that he never lifts a finger (You sure make me do a whole lot of labour) 24-7, baby machine (The calloused skin on my hands is crackin') So he can live out his picket fence dreams (If our love ends, would that be a bad thing?) It's not an act of love if you make her (And the silence haunts our bed chamber) You make me do too much labour
