The Lime Tree (2009 version)
[Verse 1]
Spark a match and watch the candle burn
The wick runs out and then love takes its turn
On fallen angels and broken sounds
We will last past the final round
[Chorus]
It took a while for you to find me
But I was hiding in the lime tree
Above the city in the rain cloud
I poked a hole and watched it drain out
[Verse 2]
Parallel to the city streets
Our broken crowns beneath our feet
But as we walk across the diamonds
We know that love is always shining
Save me love, save me all the time
I'll wash you down with a simple sip of wine
Toast my glass to all my loved ones
To let them know that the stars, well they still shine
[Chorus]
It took a while for you to find me
But I was hiding in the lime tree
Above the city in the rain cloud
I poked a hole and watched it drain out
It took a while for you to find me
But I was hiding in the lime tree
Above the city in the rain cloud
I poked a hole and watched it drain out
It took a while for you to find me
But I was hiding in the lime tree
Above the city in the rain cloud, yeah
I poked a hole and watched it drain out
Took a while for you to find me
But I was hiding in the, I was hiding in the
Above the city in the rain cloud, yeah
I poked a hole and watched it drain out
[Outro]
I poked a hole and watched it drain out (find me)
I poked a hole and watched it drain out (lime tree)
It took a while for you to
It took a while for you to find me, find me, find me, find me
I was hiding in the lime tree
I was hiding in the lime tree
It took a while for you to find me
It took a while for you to find me, find me
It took a while for you to find me
To find me
