The Evergreen, The Birch Lyrics

The evergreen and birch
The window, the car window
The friend that said
"I miss you when you aren't here"
Oh that, that's nothing
If nothing is a little bit of snow-capped mountain hill
Hangs from a wall, grand Canyon, life still
Kindness is when someone turns off the light
And I look out of the window
Yeah, I've seen it, I've seen it once or twice

I never thought I ever would
And there I was growing roses
Winter here, something there
Anywhere can be anywhere

The endless wait
On and on a form just repeating a shape
And we are there, all of us
Hand in hand with a little bit of sawdust kept in spill
Nails on a wall, empty coffin, fire drill
Kindness is when someone turns off the sun
And I look out of the window
Yeah, I've seen it, I've seen it once for fun

I never thought I ever would
And there we was throwing roses
Winter here, something there
Anywhere can be anywhere

Watching the sky for nothing at all
Feeling let down, not letting it show
Turning a year, giving a year
Put up a fight, live in the dark
Rest in the soil, peace, and then grow
