Tall Trees - Crowded House

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 tree

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 tree

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 tree

Stand in the distance

Remember

When you were green

Don’t wipe

The salt from your skin

Tall tree

Tall tree

Don’t wipe

The salt from your skin

You must keep running the distance

Tall tree
