Branches – Paper Hats lyrics

[Verse 1]
These roads are made for walking
Though the blistered feet are talking
Round the barrel, grab a seat
Oh, the stories that we'll meet
So the man begins his tale
Our expressions growing pale
And the crickets with their song
Begging us to join along

[Chorus]
When the miles begin their walking
And the trees begin their talking
Swing on round the merry-go-round
Married girls in snowy sound
Birds are singing "Hallelujah!"
But those tunes are bound to fool ya'
Everything as it should be; Oh, Infinite Mystery!

[Verse 2]
More than fiction meets the eye
For it tells a seeing story
Who really wants the glory?
We will burn them in a fury!
Paper guns and paper hats
When they burn, they all burn black
And we remember all we are:
Broken boxes, burned and charred

[Chorus]
When the miles begin their walking
And the trees begin their talking
Swing on round the merry-go-round
Married girls in snowy sound
Birds are singing "Hallelujah!"
But those tunes are bound to fool ya'
Everything as it should be; Oh, Infinite Mystery!
When the miles begin their walking
And the trees begin their talking
Swing on round the merry-go-round
Married girls in snowy sound
Birds are singing "Hallelujah!"
But those tunes are bound to fool ya'
Everything as it should be; Oh, Infinite Mystery!
