Salute to August Bournonville, Galop - Giordano Bellincampi & Tivoli Symphony Orchestra

It's true, I am built like a tree My branches reach out And my roots dig into everything around me I've no use for tears And you've noticed I fear almost everything I don't have the option to break Cause all of the people I love have their lives at stake I feel so selfish I feel so insecure when I'm in pain Please don't hold me I wouldn't know how to let go When the forest inside my heart continues to grow And the roots will dig into your soul I wanna go home I am a shapeshifter too All of my colors can change if you want them to Suited for you All of my roots help me choose who to be I don't have control of my past And even though I know that, I still feel at fault For the things I've been through I still would be sorry if it wasn't for you Please don't hold me I wouldn't know how to let go When the forest inside my heart continues to grow And the roots will dig into your soul I wanna go home I am the daughter of cups Everything to offer, but it's never enough I'll give you my soul if it means I will fill up that hole in your heart Please don't hold me I'm still learning how to let go When the forest inside my heart continues to grow And the roots will dig into your soul I wanna go home I will never know if you're sorry You will never know how you hurt me And I wonder if you think about the nights we spent on concrete floors Or the words you said behind closed doors I am protecting my heart Digging up my roots to replant for a start I shake your hand Make peace with the land that you held over me Which you'll never see
