about

Although released on my 6th solo CD Djinn (Prikosnovénie) 2008, 'Tree' arrived in my late teens; I composed it circa 1984, imagining diving inside a tree and merging with its leaves.

lyrics

If there’s only one thing who knows how to move me
it’s grey-blue-green, and it lies inside the Tree!
As the years have shown us, we’ll go too far down
into the green light, to a space of our own.
Sly tree, you know me: I’ll have you…! I can’t say:
How many shadows could I hold?
And ages span with my life, being trees,
in the still breathing of their leaves -
Oh an’ when the light falls, could I travel
where the sun goes? - sinking down into the Tree.
Feel the darkness moving, in her slow cooling
when the rain is slipping down, down, you can
hear the wood-knot sigh;
There are oceans in here, creeping over me
with their infinitely blue-green hands!
Lines… slowly, drink of me too…
