Trees

You walk down broken tree-lined streets

Piles of bark and branches up to your ears

The neighbor's roof has fallen in

No one's spared from damage

It's more than you feared

Houses can be made

But trees have to grow

But trees have to grow

The linden tree in your backyard

Fell in wind and thunder onto your home

It gave you shade, it held your swing

It stood for generations

And now it is gone

Houses can be made

But trees have to grow

But trees have to grow

Houses can be made

But trees have to grow

But trees have to grow

But trees have to grow

But trees have to grow
