She left her heart in the broken branches Above me in the leaves And she a home in the lofty throes to it Underneath a sky that was blowing a breeze I watched as she shed all her leaves And then her heart hung there in the winter air And spring ain’t just around the bend
I can feel it coming again And that weary heart is far from broken in I can feel it coming around And I’m just waiting here it to fall down
I shivered there in the shaky shadow of branches thrown on the snow I willed the limbs to drop their load but seedlings started to grow She shouted “you’re wasting all of your time! The flowers blooming and this heart is only mine!”
But I can feel coming again And that weary heart is far from broken in And I can feel it around And I’m just waiting here for it to fall down
So rather waiting for it I left the frozen ground behind and climbed up instead
‘Cause I could feel it coming again And that weary heart was far from broken in And I can’t believe what I found Since decided to leave the ground
