Chinese Trees Lyrics

Hello, hello
My baby wants to be a seagull
Swimming in the ocean like before
And then she tells me
How she used to be a shadow
Like it didn't matter anymore

No one really knows me, so
This is only between us

If you can't go back to
Where we'll leave it at
Where we'll leave it at
Don't!
From Chinese trees
To empty seas of black
Empty seas of black coal

I need you here
My lonely heart attacks
The lonely heart attacks my soul

She shows me how to reach
The great Moroccan skyline
And my mind is open like a door
And then she tells me
That she's never been to China
Like it didn't matter anymore

No one really knows me, so
This is only between us

If you can't go back to
Where we'll leave it at
Where we'll leave it at
Don't!
From Chinese trees
To empty seas of black
Empty seas of black coal

I need you here
My lonely heart attacks
The lonely heart attacks my soul

No! No! No one knows me so
No! No! No one...

If you can't go back to
Where we'll leave it at
Where we'll leave it at
Don't!
From Chinese trees
To empty seas of black
Empty seas of black coal

I need you here
My lonely heart attacks
The lonely heart attacks my soul

No one really knows me, so
This is only between us
