[[[70 English folk/blues psychedelic rock and roll band, four male members, incredible artist with English 70s rock n roll]]]] [Fingerpicking folk guitar intro] [Verse 1] Down by the river, where the birch trees lean I walked with a shadow, what might’ve been The sun drew lace on the water’s face And time moved soft through the evergreen [Pre-Chorus] The breeze told stories the pines still keep Of promises buried, and secrets deep [Chorus] Oh whispering pines, won’t you sing me to sleep With lullabies carried on night blue deep The years fall like leaves And dreams drift away where the willows weep [Verse 2] Spoke to the silence where your voice once stayed It answered in echoes, with no word to be made A pebble dropped in the still of thought And ripples of longing never fade [Pre-Chorus] The dusk is a painter with trembling hands Sketching our names in the silver sands [Chorus] Oh whispering pines, won’t you sing me to sleep With lullabies carried on night blue deep The years fall like leaves And dreams drift away where the willows weep [Bridge, Instrumental with humming harmony] (Mmm-hmm-hmm) (Mmm-hmm-hmm) [Chorus] Oh whispering pines, won’t you sing me to sleep With lullabies carried on night blue deep The years fall like leaves And dreams drift away where the willows weep [Outro] So if you should wander that forest line Leave a thought in the arms of the whispering pines
