about

“I spent a tremendous amount of time meditating with trees…I could
‘feel’ what being a tree is like…energetically…the age, slowness of cycles, and growth. This song became about ‘being’ a tree; we are all one, and if we slow down enough we can learn to feel and know this.”

lyrics

(Green Woman, Huldra)

Marian van der Zon – vocals & background vocals
Steve Dawson - guitars
Jeremy Holmes - bass
Gary Craig - drums

She lives inside of me
And above and below
In the form of pink pyramids
Where I’m safe to grow

Connecting to towering trees
And moving down the roots
Deeper ‘cross the country
And deeper ‘round the seas

Her hair extends to galaxies
The starlight streaming down
Interleaving easily
With the trees that she has found

She breathes with life and grows
Ever present, so she be
And in a moment, I suppose
That always, she is me
