Whispering Grass Songtext
von Sandy Denny

Why do you whisper green grass
Why tell the trees what ain′t so
Whispering grass
The trees don't have to know
No, no, no

Why tell them all your secrets
Who kissed there long ago
Whispering grass
The trees don′t need to know

Now don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell it to the trees
And everyone will know
Because you told them once before
Yes, you told them once before
It′s no secret anymore


Why tell them all the old things
They′re buried under the snow
Whispering grass
Don't tell the trees
′Cause the trees don't need to know

Why tell them all your secrets
Who kissed there long ago
Whispering grass
The trees don′t need to know

Now don't you tell it to the breeze
′Cause she will run and tell it to the trees
And everyone will know
Because you told them once before
Yes, you told them once before
And that's why it's no secret anymore

Why tell them all the old things
They′re buried under the snow
Whispering grass
Don′t tell the trees
'Cause the trees don′t need to know
