I
can hear you calling
Don't think you understand
I'll never go the distance
I'm not eating from your hand
But I'm worried about you baby
Never seem to figure out
Why do you keep on hangin' round
If the tree don't fall it don't make no sound
I
can hear you crying
The only card that you can play
Don't you wonder why you're lonely
When all the waves are washed away
I can see it in your future
As the gypsy shakes her head
Why do you keep on hangin' round
If a tree don't fall it don't make no sound
I've
been wondering to myself babe
Why you mess around in the dark
You can only fool yourself baby
To make you think you've made your mark
Why do you keep on hangin' round
If the tree don't fall it don't make no sound
You
made your last mistake baby
You played your hand way too long
It's all in what you make it
Sit on by until it's gone
But I can hear you callin'
In the middle of the night
When you're left by the side of the road
Until your soul fades from sight
Why do you keep on hangin' round
If the tree don't fall it don't make no sound
