Whispering Grass (demo) 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
Oh, no, no

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

Don't you tell it to the breeze
For 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 your 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
For she will run and tell 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
