[Verse 1]
On a long lost night, on my own
Oh, she comes to me, so all alone
I offer shelter, safe from the night
She says nothin', just turns out the light
[Chorus]
She said, "All I want from you is everything
Bury all my love beneath the fever tree"
She said, "All I want from you is everything
Bury all my love beneath the fever tree"
[Verse 2]
Between the shadows and circumstance
Blood on the flowers, tears in the glass
She’s gone tomorrow, no sun today
I swallow all of this and try to walk away
[Chorus]
Nah-nah-nah nah nah, nah nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah nah nah, hey, yeah
Nah-nah-nah nah nah, nah nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah nah nah, hey, yeah
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
You got the hammer, you got the nails
I give you both my hands, leave me locked in jail
I'm just a prisoner, you say that I am free
To spend the rest of my days beneath the fever tree
[Chorus]
Sing for sorrow, sing for me
Hang my heart out on the fever tree
Sing for sorrow, sing for free
Hang my heart out on the fever tree
Nah-nah-nah nah nah, nah nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah nah nah, hey, yeah
Nah-nah-nah nah nah, nah nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah nah nah, hey, yeah
