The Sylvan Wait-Mge-1

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

Found you in the laurel leaves

Bare bark where your skin used to be

Sunlight spills through heavy branches

Morning moves while my heart stagnates

I trace the rings of all the winters

Years etched in a silver spiral

Still reaching for the ghost of gold

Waiting for the wind to call

Chorus

Wait for the spring to wake the root

Wait for the bloom to bring the truth

Maybe the sap will flow again

Maybe the bark will finally thin

Ancient green and copper veins

Tangled hair and summer rains

You are the shade where I still lie

Underneath a pale and hollow sky

Post-Chorus

Ah-ah

I'm waiting for you

Ooh-ooh

Waiting for you

Verse 2

Seasons turn like iron wheels

Rusting in the meadow deep

Bitter salt and biting frost

Everything I chased is lost

Shadows stretch and shadows fade

Losing light inside this glade

Roots are digging in the clay

Praying for a brighter day

Chorus

Wait for the spring to wake the root

Wait for the bloom to bring the truth

Maybe the sap will flow again

Maybe the bark will finally thin

Ancient green and copper veins

Tangled hair and summer rains

You are the shade where I still lie

Underneath a pale and hollow sky

Bridge

Gold was the crown you used to wear

Now you are wood and cold evening air

Sun against sap

Heart in the trap

Still I am here

Still you are near

Chorus

Wait for the spring to wake the root

Wait for the bloom to bring the truth

Maybe the sap will flow again

Maybe the bark will finally thin

Ancient green and copper veins

Tangled hair and summer rains

You are the shade where I still lie

Underneath a pale and hollow sky

Drop

Waiting

Waiting for you

Coming back

Back to me

Chorus

Wait for the spring to wake the root

Wait for the bloom to bring the truth

Maybe the sap will flow again

Maybe the bark will finally thin

Ancient green and copper veins

Tangled hair and summer rains

You are the shade where I still lie

Underneath a pale and hollow sky
