This song is about a tree (symbolizing nature, God, Mother Nature, take your pick) watching a battle in the American Civil War. "My roots are deeper than the bones, the others My colors that change with the sun (leaves changing season to season) My branches, we're higher Than anything on the hillside" And this points to more of the God/Mother Nature spiritual nature of the narrator: "Those that have fallen, come when I call them And answer the best that they can" And the Civil War participants (the Blue and the Grey) Some wear the color of the sky in the winter Some, we're as blue as the night And then of course the flags flying: Colors flew high and they danced in the sky |
