She left her heart in the broken branches above me
In the leaves
And she built a home in the lofty throws
To guard it, underneath

The sky there was blowing a breeze
And watched as she shed all of her leaves
And then, her heart hung there in the winter air
and spring ain't just around the bend

But I can feel it coming again
And that weary heart is from broken
And I can feel it coming around
And I'm just waiting here for it to fall down

And I shivered there in the shaky shadow of branches
thrown on the snow
And I willed the limbs to drop their load
but seedlings started to grow
She shouted “you’re wasting all of your time!
The flowers are blooming and this heart is only mine!”

But I can feel it coming again
And that weary heart is far from broken in
And I can feel it coming around
And I’m just waiting here for it to fall down

So rather than waiting for it
I left the frozen ground behind and climbed up instead

‘Cause I could feel it coming again
And that weary heart was far from broken in
And I can’t believe what I found
Since I decided to leave the ground
