English Trees

English trees in my garden They planted seeds in a faraway land In between the palms and the succulent grow They lose their leaves in the winter Mark the seasons for him and for her Once upon a time in the fallen snow Up against the sky made a silhouette show England cries and she plays for him Her chords entwined like a requiem And though it's springtime and color is new In Regent's Park I will mourn for you And I must be wise somehow 'Cause my heart's been broken down It's so far to fall And so hard to climb Nothing sadder I know Than the passing of time You won't forget me You won't forget me English trees in my garden Summer's missed you my darling All your crimes are forgiven Yeah, all your crimes are forgiven And I must be wise somehow You won't forget me You won't forget me And England cries (England cries) There's English trees in my garden
