Lantern Tree

A lantern eye sits in a tree I think it's waiting here for me The forest all seems shadowed now Except when moonlight hits the ground Stand and wait here with me Who knows what we will see There must be life around If we stay still don't make sound Oh lantern tree Oh you keep calling me What is it that you see? Oh lantern tree Foggy haze beneath the sky Wonder how it feels to fly Trees are twisted but don't fear No one has escaped from here Someone tried to explain to me Didn't really care to see You could always stand to learn But you've got to take your turn Oh lantern tree Oh you keep calling me What is it that you see? Oh lantern tree Softly Illuminating Hardly Anticipating Leaves that fall beneath my hand It all shrivels where I stand No one else's been here before No one's walked this trail of thorns Oh lantern tree Oh you keep calling me What is it that you see? Oh lantern tree Oh lantern tree Oh lantern tree
