Branches Lyrics
[Verse]
How we would wake up warming
In the morning by the kerosene
Outside the banks were forming
Like an ocean of evangeline
[Chorus]
I live and dream
You live and dream
In the branches of the evergreen
[Verse]
We take Betsy walking
In the back field by the lumber yard
Sammy cut worms with bare hands
And I loved him with all of my heart
[Chorus]
I live and dream
You live and dream
In the branches of the еvergreen
I live and dream
You livе and dream
In the branches of the evergreen
[Verse]
Crossing the ice a [?]
And the dogs were a-howling
And you said the tram
You said the tram
You said the tram would come soon
With a breath that was flowering
[Chorus]
I live and dream
You live and dream
In the branches of the evergreen
I live and dream
You live and dream
In the branches of the evergreen
