Silvery Branches Lyrics
At night when my love is sleeping
We meet in a dark strange dream
we're going dancing in the pasture
so Jesus cries, do not cry for me
All your dreams will melt away
all the butterflies will burn and fade
but love and pain will still reach you
deep inside your grave
My love don't go crucify him
Duty, butterflies upon cherry trees
Across the hills the belltower rang
All the sparrows danced and sang
A desperate thirst befell us then
And the clouds filled our cups with rain
In the night we swam in grief
In the daylight we cried for relief
In the shade of eucalyptus trees
We breathed their silvery breeze.
We meet in a dark strange dream
we're going dancing in the pasture
so Jesus cries, do not cry for me
all the butterflies will burn and fade
but love and pain will still reach you
deep inside your grave
Duty, butterflies upon cherry trees
All the sparrows danced and sang
A desperate thirst befell us then
And the clouds filled our cups with rain
In the daylight we cried for relief
In the shade of eucalyptus trees
We breathed their silvery breeze.
