Lyrics The Levellers

The Levellers

Falling from the Tree

Well, I fell down from the tree of life

Hit the branches on the way

Yeah, way down to the root

Found what's been bothering me

And I'll tell you

If you can hear above the din

That I just can't get back

To where I've been

And if I ever found

All that I wanted

I've traveled the world

All the way 'round

If you ever gave me

All I ever wanted

I'd travel the world

All the way 'round

'Cause I just can't get back to where I've been

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been

No, I just can't get back to where I've been

'Cause I know a place

And I want to be there

I read it in the poems

On the way down

There it lies

The unchecked country

Far beyond

Spectacle of plains

'Cause I just can't get back to where I've been

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been

Well, I just can't get back to where I've been

Well, I fell down from the tree of life

Hit the branches on the way

Yeah, way down to the root

Found what's been bothering me

And I'll tell you

If you can hear above the din

No, I just can't get back

To where I've been

No, I just can't get back

To where I've been

'Cause I know a place

And I want to be there

I read it in the poems

on the way down

There it lies

The unchecked country

Far beyond

Spectacle of plains

'Cause I fell down from the tree of life

Hit the branches on the way

Yeah, way down to the root

Found what's been bothering me

And I'll tell you

If you can hear above the din

No, I just can't get back

To where I've been

No, I just can't get back to where I've been

No, I just can't get back to where I've been

No, I just can't get back to where I've been

No, I just can't get back to where I've been

If I ever found

All that I wanted

Be a beautiful dream

This is a beautiful dream

These are beautiful dreams
