The Summer Tree
Verse1
Monster of love come clip my spreading wings, bind me to that post to the Summer Tree.
Verse 2
Horned spirit snakes entwined, the serpent’s kiss is on your wrists. Love makes me blind.
Transition
Tie me to the Summer Tree and let me be reborn. There's death in this dare, the taste of the dying; starving, parched and twisted open.
Chorus
Feel the saving rain lifting me kissing me. Feel the saving rain taking me tasting me, breaking me, gripping me, touching me.
Verse 3
Scrape me raw turn me outside in, expose the other me. The innocent ghost of a chance to be reborn with the earth.
Verse 4
Oh faithless goddess of the moon, let your arrow pierce my broken heart. Bind me forever in love.
Transition
Tie me to the Summer Tree and let me be reborn. There's death in this dare, the taste of the dying, starving, parched and twisted open.
Chorus
Feel the saving rain lifting me kissing me. Feel the saving rain taking me tasting me, breaking me, gripping me, touching me.
Bridge
Oh but you're not a god you're just a man in touch with thought and emotion. Commanding spirits, fingertips of light.
Chorus
Feel the saving rain lifting me kissing me. Feel the saving rain taking me tasting me, breaking me, gripping me, touching me.
Verse 5
I am reborn in love another day, waiting for fate's chance and choice I'm tied to the Summer Tree. Tied to the Summer Tree, tied to the Summer Tree, I'm tied to you.
