Lyrics
Branches and Ivy
Written by Lorraine Jordan ©
Woke at dawn
Saw it all
The writing was up on the main wall
Lines are worn
Reason gone
Head like a tick-tocking time bomb
Don't be surprised if you see me
Running off to live in the green trees
Don't raise your eyes if you find me
Swinging off of branches and ivy
Won't be long
Feel it come
Whipping up a big form rain storm
Lines are worn
Reason gone
Head like a quick flowing waterfall
Don't be surprised if you see me
Running off to live in the green trees
Don't raise your eyes if you find me
Swinging off of branches and ivy
Can't hold on
It's too strong
Gotta turn this upside world 'round
Don't belong it's all wrong
Living like a hong-kong-silicon
Don't be surprised if you see me
Running off to live in the green trees
Don't raise your eyes if you find me
Swinging off of branches and ivy
Woke at dawn
Saw it all
The writing was up on the main wall
Lines are worn
Reason gone
Head like a tick-tocking time bomb
Don't be surprised if you see me
Running off to live in the green trees
Don't raise your eyes if you find me
Swinging off of branches and ivy
Don't be surprised if you see me
Running off to live in the green trees
Don't raise your eyes if you find me
Swinging off of branches and ivy
Swinging off of branches and ivy
Swinging off of branches and ivy
