Three Tree Town Lyrics

Cover art for Three Tree Town lyrics by Ben Howard

I love love love this song. It's so real and pure. I have two interpretations to this song as Ben's songs are so poetic. Firstly, I think it has something to do with loving a girl who is going through a tough time or is depressed. - 'because worry is all that you'll find there' However, I also believe it is about a broken down relationship that has experienced many problems but also manage to put that behind them and still love each other. Also, it shows this idea of a relationship that is going round in circles... Love - Argument - Break up - Love again. Mainly, I believe it is about a love that overcomes all obstacles and a sort of carefree, reckless love - I get this imagery from 'How she tied me down in her sweet caress'

My Interpretation
