Never gonna see, that old birch tree
Where you carved our names when you were with me
Never gonna be, your jacket with tight seams
Though I used

Oh this birch tree
Oh how it speaks to me
When I am lonely
And I feel free
I'll plan on you
Even if you don't want me to
I'll wait
Under the shade

you've been my friend
Cool summer breeze on my face
Come over here and sit beside me
By the birch tree
Dragonflies breeding
Feel the last scent

She takes the long way home
Kicking up dirt as she runs off-road
She stops by an old birch tree
New hearts engraved labeled you and me
So she
Dances

as you sit by the birch tree 
Come to the tree, bring a birthday card for you 
Seem a bit shocked, but crack a brief smile 
I notice 
Oh, you're not

At dawn they carved their names out in the bark
 
By the tall old birch tree, he went down on his knees
Will you marry me, Alice? Golden curl locks

I'm a silver birch tree growing in a forest
An apple tree with orange fruit working for my porridge
I'm just a messenger passing on a promise
They're

rumblings from Gallilee
Across my collar bone and shoulder
And hope to die by a birch tree

Feel like a birch
Tree at least
In terms of dispersal
It's just like pollen: airborne
Soon as you walk in the airport
You got a toddler to care for
And I

Spun out of an inverse world
Now the birch tree has a burl
The fields I see are seen to change
I fought with soldiers of a jarl
And well-worn flags

in the birch tree
For it was morning
For it was morning
For it was time for morning mass
It was early on a Sunday morning
While the whole street still

Still Waters at Night

Joan Baez

Gulf Winds

1976

(Words and Music by Joan Baez)

Still waters at night
In the darkest of dark
But you rise as white
As the birch tree's bark
Or a pale wolf in winter

and modesty deserted, 
In a lustful frenzy I embraced a birch-tree.

I'd a feeling I too was a maple like you, 
Not a bare and bald one, but bright green

Surely there'll be mercy 
Well surely there'll be mercy 
But firstly like a bird perched in a birch tree they will chirp me 

I'm a country

the old birch tree

Oh mommy and daddy, look past the tears you cry
We're both up in Heaven now, God is by our side
As you lay us down to rest in

Surely there'll be mercy 
Well surely there'll be mercy 
But firstly like a bird perched in a birch tree they will chirp me 

I'm a country

 White birch, white birch, milk tree
Dance in, smoke in my eyes,
Your arms in water way...
Clatter us with white teeth,
Snow has tired on winter,

BIRCH TREE
Dance dance my dearest wind
Make my canopy dance, make my canopy cry
For Mommie and Daddy who were on the way to work

Perfect Love

they carved their initials in an old birch tree
With a heart and an arrow and a 'sixty-three.
You had to be blind not to see
It was a perfect love.

Forever remembered 
As the children of the sea 
Their birch tree heritage 

Red ochre 
Painted faces 
Ancient spirits 
A deceased identity 

The mountains

to my Lou
And Bless our Homeland
Grab your clogs and join in the dance
An old birch tree with leaves of green
It´s witnessed hundreds of springs
If you go

go wrong
Haunted by the ghosts of possibility
No matter if I'm sleeping
Or when I'm awake
I can't escape
The burning California Birch Tree

And when I

you
When a tulip breaks through the ground
When a birch tree's leaves come down
When a whippoorwill makes that sound
I see you

Somewhere there is

Big old birch tree swinging on down
Power knocked flat
Rotten straight through
Like where my fingers meet the nails
More fitting of my age
My face is
