I sat up in a tree Until I thought I was part of the forest Night came and fell on me I didn't move I was waiting for the chorus I stayed ‘til morning came Not a sound not a peep in the forest I waited for a symphony But it was a song in a silent key It's getting all silent in there It's getting all silent It's getting all silent in there It's getting all silent I've dreamt of a winter day Where the earth was a bed of hot ashes No one can hear the cry Nor the sound of a tree when it crashes I've seen a bird fly I've cried by riversides I gave birth to a child I found a sky where the music had died It's getting all silent in there It's getting all silent It's getting all silent in there It's getting all silent Give me a chance to hear The sound of life It used to be in here I sat up in a tree Until I felt I was part of the forest Night came and fell on me I didn't move I was waiting for the chorus Je me suis assise dans un arbre Jusqu'à ce que je sente faire partie de la forêt La nuit vint et tomba sur moi Je n'ai pas bougé I sat up in a tree Until I felt I was part of the forest Night came and fell on me
