"Orchardist" lyrics

"Orchardist"
(feat. Lady Lamb)

Somewhere in Hawkins County, Tennessee
Walking around the factory
Talking to my friend

She always said I held my candle in
Some kind of sheltering
I don't wanna be that way again

Not I, not I, not I
But you in me
It's not just growing trees
It's husbandry
And knowing what the season means

Somewhere in Arlesheim, Switzerland
Walking around the hermitage
Video slo-mo'd by accident

She is standing there beside the lake
Hair blowing slow across her face
And I'm saying something low

Not I, not I, not I
But you in me
It's not living large
It's history
And knowing what the season means

Not I, not I, not I
But you in me
It's not just growing trees
It's husbandry
And knowing what the season means

Not I, not I, not I
But you in me
It's not living large
It's history
And knowing what the season means
