Through the dark forest   Between the green trees   Stay and listen what they say      Dejection in their voices   No hope in their cries   Hear their song with a tear in your eye   Leaves are falling   One by one   Soon we'll know what we have done   And the time will come   Not far away   When we're on the run   Don't dare to stay   But there's no chance to escape   When the tears of the trees   Falling down on earth   Now it's time to return      The tears of the trees   Rolling round the world   The last cry - the last hope   Hear the deadly silence   Deep in their song - the cry of life   Stay and listen what they say   And the time will come   When the children say to their mom:   "I've never seen the colour green !"      When the tears of the trees   Falling down on earth   Now it's time to return   The tears of the trees   Rolling round the world   The last cry - the last hope
