Birch Tree
Foals

City I was born in

Left a long time ago

For we lost touch

Grew apart my friend


I hunt an awful dancer

Troubled romancer you know

It's a subway chancer

I shouldn't have known it so


Come, meet me by the river

See how time, it flows x2


When we age, shed our skin and grow

We said our names, spread our wings and go


Might hunt an old black panther, corrupted flymancer you know

It's a troubled romancer, questioned with no answer


Come, meet me by the river

See how time, it flows x4


Oh, and the river runs away when I chase it

Fall on my feet when I turn and face it


Come, meet me by the river

See how time, it flows x4
