Where The Birch Trees Lean

Intro: Interlude Verse Now that there are green sprouts pushing through dead leaves, and fat yellow jackets float on the breeze, the waves kiss the shore and the air is warm, but birch trees are falling now that you are gone. Once we walked the crumbling cliffs where the birch trees lean; Once I kissed your apple lips high above the sea. Interlude Verse A year ago it was when the last clover grew. Under creaking birch trees I would wait for you. We kissed in the salt air between the leaning trees, white slender branches bent to the sea. Once we walked the crumbling cliffs where the birch trees lean; now who will kiss your apple lips under the salty sea Outro
