about

Sharon: This tune came to my head while walking around in the redwoods near my old home in Santa Cruz and the bay area. The words also came on that walk and in the hours following it.

lyrics

Chorus
Ancient one, what have you seen
Could you tell a tale to me
The years have come and gone
And still you’re standing strong

I can see by the scars
Fires have found you here
Deep and swollen burls
Tell of long and painful years
Chorus

Hands of time have slowly turned
And the land around you, too
Hands of man have left their mark
Some that time cannot undo
Chorus

In your years you seem so wise
From all that you have seen
But in your youth were you like us
Reckless and free
Chorus

Crashing of the waves
A whisper in your bows
Gently filtered lights
Deep and fertile smells
Chorus
