Brendan Perry - Tree of Life

This song was written for an album that would have come after Ark, which didn’t happen. Live at Eter. Klub - Poland, Wrocław, 12th September, 2011. Tree of Life I believe in this life, But not the afterlife. In a natural order, in the Tree of Life. Why pretend you can see, Beyond the clouds, beyond all reason, Beyond all doubt? Come down from your mountains, Throw away those keys, Try to live your lives in harmony. When you fall from the Tree, Like a falling leaf, To return to the soil to Mother Earth, From cold earth you will seek, To return from the deep, To the warm embrace of father Sun. I’m a believer... I believe. I’m a believer... I believe. As you swim across the sea, Up mountain river streams, To the crystal pool where you were born, To return to the sea, On an ocean current stream, Back to the place where you belong.
