Lyrics
Storm rolled in to our surprise
A storm arrived unexpectedly
It doesn't rain under the tall trees
Protection exists even in challenging times
You were my love, you were my tree
You were my love, my source of support and comfort
You would always protect me
Your role was to safeguard me
It's easier to take a heart than to let your own by taken
It's easier to hurt someone than to allow oneself to be hurt
I love that little smile you keep in the corner of your mouth
Appreciation for a subtle, constant happiness you display
And is it hard to see me go?
Questioning the difficulty of witnessing departure
Doing things the wrong way
Engaging in actions contrary to the right way
If you're here, when I fall
Assurance when supported by your presence
I know that I won't fall a long way
Confidence in not falling far with your support
A long way
Emphasis on the distance one won't fall
We were talking on the phone
Conversation over the phone
I stepped out into the hallway
Momentarily leaving a conversation for the hallway
My face was frozen on the screen
Frozen expression while being watched on a screen
And you started laughing
The reaction of laughter from the observer
Put a cone through your hair
Fixing appearance before expected company arrives
And a clean shirt on
Preparing oneself with a clean presentation
There's people comin' 'round here soon
Awareness of upcoming visitors
Everyone, act normal
Requesting normal behavior from everyone
Big trees fall all the time
Even significant figures face downfall
They crack and sound like lightning
The collapse echoes like thunder
Leave a big space in your sky when they fall
Leaving a void when a significant support falls
When they fall a long way
The impact felt when support collapses greatly
A long way
Reiterating the vastness of the fall
Pick me up
Asking for assistance or support
Fill my cup now
Desire to be fulfilled or replenished
Take me down, down to where we start
Returning to the starting point
Let's go too far now
Embracing excessive or risky actions
All tangled up
Feeling entangled or deeply involved
Take me down, down to where we start
Returning to the initial phase or situation
Down to where we start
Reverting to the beginning
Where we start
Returning to the starting point
