Music video - Leaves & Lovers
Did you know that if you stethoscope a tree, you can hear the hum of its heartbeat shivering down each sinewy spine, the tangle and turn of its watery threads, you can hear each snap and snarl?
'Leaves and Lovers' is written from the perspective of a tree who’s lost its leaves, stripped back to bare bone, haunted by the memory of warmth. I don’t think I’ve ever written a song or a poem where reflection on their beauty hasn’t crept in.
