Silent

Emily Loizeau

I sat up in a tree
Until I thought I was part of the forest
Night came and fell on me
I didn't move

I was waiting for the chorus
I stayed ‘til morning came
Not a sound not a peep in the forest
I waited for a symphony
But it was a song in a silent key

It's getting all silent in there
It's getting all silent
It's getting all silent in there
It's getting all silent

I've dreamt of a winter day
Where the earth was a bed of hot ashes
No one can hear the cry
Nor the sound of a tree when it crashes
I've seen a bird fly
I've cried by riversides
I gave birth to a child
I found a sky where the music had died

It's getting all silent in there
It's getting all silent
It's getting all silent in there
It's getting all silent

Give me a chance to hear
The sound of life
It used to be in here

I sat up in a tree
Until I felt I was part of the forest
Night came and fell on me
I didn't move
I was waiting for the chorus

Je me suis assise dans un arbre
Jusqu'à ce que je sente faire partie de la forêt
La nuit vint et tomba sur moi
Je n'ai pas bougé

I sat up in a tree
Until I felt I was part of the forest
Night came and fell on me
