[Verse 1]
Whatever you think you know
Whatever they say about me
You know that those words will stay between us
I'm air in the trackless snow
A voice in the poplar trees
I'll take you to where no one goes
But no one ever leaves
[Chorus]
So don't be afraid if
Nobody loves you
Don't be afraid if
Nobody sees
[Verse 2]
However the words come out
However they twist the meaning
We'll always have the breeze block steps
To the downland
[Chorus]
So don't be afraid if
Nobody loves you
Don't be afraid if
Nobody sees
[Bridge]
I'm there on the open roads
A name caught there on a tree
A flame in the lightless forest
Under the leaves
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
Don't be afraid if
Nobody loves you
Don't be afraid if
Nobody sees
Don't be afraid if
Nobody loves you
Don't be afraid 'cause no one
Loves me
[Outro]
I'm there on the open roads
A name caught there on a tree
I'm a flame in the lightless forest
Under the leaves
I'm air in the trackless snow
A voice in the poplar trees
I'm a flame in the lightless forest
Under the leaves
