Where I come from, silvery trees 
Diamond on leaf, can't you see it? 
Why did I leave? 

The clipping of wings 
The draping of kings 
I was here long before you 
Now kindly leave 

This was far far away 
And I knew I would not stay 
Down on the ground 
I'll be found 
I opened up my mouth 
I didn't make a sound 
I could not cut you down, down, down 

I was a girl and you were a boy 
With innocent thoughts getting colder 
Than it was before 

This was long long ago 
And I knew we'd never know 
Down on the ground 
I'll be found 
I opened up my mouth 
I didn't make a sound 
I could not cut you down, down, down 

Down, down, down 
Could not cut you down
