[Verse 1: Stu Larsen]
Black tree, remember me
From the time that we used to talk?
How strange, things have changed, I don't know you anymore
But you stayed the same, that's why I came
I need your clarity
'Cause I find peace as I sit beneath
Your familiarity
[Verse 2: Lydia Cole]
Black tree, remember me?
I'm the one who moved away
Yeah I know, I've grown so much since yesterday
And it's been so long that it feels wrong
To ask anything of you
But I'm more lost than I ever was
And I need to know you're true
[Verse 3: Both]
Black tree, remember me?
I hoped you might
I was sure, you saw me running through the night
So I cried out, yeah I screamed so loud
For you to rescue me
But I was found without a sound in your company
Company (yeah, yeah, yeah)
[Verse 4: Both]
Black tree, remember me
For the rest of time
When I go, I know that I'll be laid by your side
'Cause you stand tall, will you ever fall?
I know you never will
And I'll be free for eternity, on the other side
Of that old hill
[Outro: Both]
Of that old hill
Of that old hill
Of that old hill
Of that old hill
Of that old hill
Of that old hill
Of that old hill
Of that old hill
