Blossom Tree Songtext

von Declan de Barra

Well, if I can make it through winter
If I can make it through spring
If I can see one blossom grow
I think I'll be okay

But these days seem shorter now
Than I remember before
And these nights seem longer now
That I spend them alone

And it's one for sorrow and it's two for joy
Three for a girl and four for a boy
Five to get married and six to die
I'll meet you at the blossom tree
At the dead of the night
And we'll leave our ghosts behind
Leave our ghosts behind
To quietly fade and die
Leave our ghosts behind

Well, maybe you're out there
You're feeling the same
Trying to ease the loneliness
That's driving you insanse
Well, if you can make it through winter
If your hope still sings
I'll meet you at the blossom tree
At the dawning of the spring

And it's one for sorrow and it's two for joy
Three for a girl and four for a boy
Five to get married and six to die
I'll meet you at the blossom tree
At the dead of the night
And we'll leave our ghosts behind
We'll leave our ghosts behind
To quietly fade and die
Leave our ghosts behind

Well, gods never helped me
And prayers never saved me
Or fed me or gave me a bed
But the sight of a white flower
At a thorn tree at this hour
Has saved me from meself

And it's one for sorrow and it's two for joy
Three for a girl and four for a boy
Five to get married and six to die
I'll meet you at the blossom tree
At the dead of the night
And we'll leave our ghosts behind
We'll leave our ghosts behind
To quietly fade and die
We'll leave our ghosts behind
