[00:05.60]
[00:09.10]He’s forgotten the names of trees
[00:14.20]Familiar faces have no names
[00:18.60]He’s returned from alien seas
[00:23.70]To find our father’s house in flames
[00:31.10]
[00:32.70]He tries to read the signs
[00:36.40]But they’re in unfamiliar tongues
[00:41.30]Some half-remembered lines
[00:46.30]He read when he was young
[00:51.90]
[00:53.00]But there are days when he recalls
[00:58.70]The forest in the fall
[01:02.80]When we can walk together, and he’s fine
[01:12.10]There are precious days like that
[01:17.80]When he can name them all
[01:22.00]The ash, the elm, the beech, the oak, the pine
[01:31.60]
[01:40.60]He’s forgotten the names of trees
[01:45.70]His thoughts are like the chattering birds
[01:50.30]They travel as they please
[01:55.20]And build their nests of scattered words
[02:01.90]
[02:04.00]The children stop and smile
[02:08.20]They offer him their candy bar
[02:13.10]They sometimes stay a while
[02:17.70]And remind him of who they are
[02:23.50]
[02:24.20]But there are days when he recalls
[02:30.30]The forest in the fall
[02:34.40]When we can walk together, and he’s fine
[02:43.80]There are precious days like that
[02:49.30]When he can name them all
[02:53.50]The ash, the elm, the beech, the oak, the pine
[03:03.50]
[03:12.10]He’s forgotten the names of trees
[03:17.20]He smells the land to his surprise
[03:22.00]He’s lost in the Hebrides
[03:26.80]A stranger to our sunny skies
[03:34.70]He’s forgotten the names of trees...
