lyrics

My mother and sister set hooks in the ceiling 
With polygrams of ornaments dangling
Another year, another new idea that looked appealing
Their imaginations somehow never failing
 
And the sun poured through the windows and onto the plastic
To fill my room, while I'm gone and somewhere unknown
Glistening so brilliantly, the sight So complete and fantastic
The hanging tree for me marked the year I left home
 
I know I will do the same 
In the same setting with a different name

And they can close their eyes real tight
Those girls find a way to fill my room and make it their own
Just a new day, a new year, another night
The hanging tree for me marked the year I left home
 
And I can close my eyes real tight
And find a way to fill a new room and make it my own
Just a new day, a new year, another night
The hanging tree for me marked the year I left home
