Old Forest




A woods as old as the stars in the sky
Trees grown thick since ancient times
Old Forest
Where the trees live oldest

Your bark has hardened with all of the pain
Soothe your wounds with warm summer rain
Old Forest
Where the trees are restless

Oooh...If I could mend your heart
Oooh...You'd feel love
Oooh...Let the sun shine through
Oooh...It'll heal you

There is no evil in those darkened woods
It's just old anger with ancient roots
Old Forest
Where the trees are fearless

Life's full of joy, oh can't you see?
Let your wrath fade and let yourself free
Old Forest
I hope your soul will find rest

Oooh...If I could mend your heart
Oooh...You'd feel love
Oooh...Let the sun shine through
Oooh...It'll heal you

I know there's something good in you too
Even Ol' Tom would say that it's true
Old Forest
I know your soul will find rest

Oooh...If I could mend your heart
Oooh...You'd feel love
Oooh...Let the sun shine through
Oooh...

Oooh...If I could mend your heart
Oooh...You'd feel love
Oooh...Let the sun shine through
Oooh...

If I could mend your heart...


About the song

This is the first song I performed on our Grand Journey Home trip to Enedwaith. I sang it as we stopped at Adso's Camp, near the Old Forest. It is best sung to a tune by Madonna, Frozen.
