These Trees Lyrics

Dedicated to Francis Hallé and all the people fighting for trees…

Falling… One by one..

Losses…
Green…
Used to be your horizon
As far as the eye can see
But now the walls of the prison
Are closing in

Down…
Another one is falling down…I can’t take
We must try to save the earth’s gown
And I will fight for…

…Their roots are ours

Chorus:
Down to the forest, it’s a fantasy
I felt down – I’m now feeling high
Let be breathe… in their arms
Let me take a last photohraph.

And I will fight for these trees
Yes I will fight for these trees
Till death!!!!!!!

Tell me you understand
Tell me you’ll join me

Into our everyday life
We are playing with…
A great fork and great knife
The Hunger of the…

…Town! It’s the hunger of the town
As big, as endless as ours
We all want everything
…every thing…

A phone for a tree…
There won’t be something for everyone

Stop!... stop the destroying process…
Before we reach checkmate
Stop it! Before it is too late!
Oh Please, please…

From Rio to Congo
The Same tragedy
From Tokyo
to New York city

Open your eyes now
Let’s Kiss the Bark
Before it’s dark

[Chorus]

Tell me you understand
Tell me you’ll join me

Rise and fight
Come With me!
Change With me!
And shout!
And Act!

For the forest, for the trees!
For us…

[Chorus]

Fight for this green paradise
It’s the light shining in your eyes
Burning it, it’s burning your life
Yours and those to come…

And I will fight for these trees
Yes I will fight for these trees
Till death!!!!!!!

Tell me you understand
Tell me you’ll join me

What if I fail?...
