Tall Trees

Watch out big ships are waiting, salt frozen on your cheek

I saw a girl and boy arriving and a steamer put out to sea



Tall trees stand in the distance

Remember when you were green

Don't wipe the salt from your skin

You must keep running the distance



Sun sleeps on misty morning, light years from channel three

I feel halfway to zero, call me a hero, I might just agree



Tall trees stand in the distance

Remember when you were green

Don't wipe the salt from your skin

You must keep running the distance



And the roses you grow have a powerful scent

They'll be breaking your heart by the morning



I feel halfway to zero, call me a hero, I might just agree



Tall trees stand in the distance

Remember when you were green

Don't wipe the salt from your skin

Tall trees

Tall trees

Don't wipe the salt from your skin

You must keep running the distance
