The Staves - Winter Trees Lyrics

The Staves Lyrics

"Winter Trees"

White winter trees covered in snow
I don't mind
I don't mind
I think of you now here in the cold
You won't mind
You won't know

But I never meant to say any of those things
Oh I never meant to tell you how to be or how to think
Oh I was wrong

Heavy of heart, weary of soul
You won't mind
You won't mind
Think of him now fathoms below
You won't mind
You won't know

But I never meant to say any of those things
Words can sound so cruel when you speak before you think
Oh I was wrong
But you didn't understand that my heart was in your hands
You were so blind, blind

I promised you that I'd never let you down
Oh but I couldn't love you any less than now
And I promised you that I'd never let you down
Oh but I couldn't love you any less than I do now
And I lost myself on that November night

White winter trees covered in snow
I don't mind
