Cover art for Walnut Tree lyrics by Keane

Once there was a great storm - something really bad happened in the event of his life Pushed my head beneath the waves, - he was completely screwed over by this "event" I was gone. -everything he had was lost

Underneath the walnut tree, - at a certain place Where you said you'd wait for me, - his girlfriend told me that she'd always be there for him no matter what but she doesn't show up. And I waited a long, long time- he waits... but she's a no show.

I waited a long, long time, I waited a long, long time, I waited a long, long time, I waited a long, long time.

-self explanatory

Why, why do I come here? - he's thinkign as to why did he come, even though he knew she wouldn't come Seeking out the memories I handed, - he still misses her memories and wants to see her 'Cause you put your spell on me, - he's still completely in love with her, and her not waiting for him breaks his heart. Made me live a memory, -he only has memories of her and that's what he's living because he doesn't have her anymore. And im frozen in just the wrong time. -he doesn't want to be here, but he is. He wishes things would be different but they aren't. ANd he wishes he could have his gf..

I waited a long, long time, I waited a long, long time, I waited a long, long time, I waited a long, long time.

WELL that's my meaning and understanding

Kanita.
