Whispering Grass lyrics


Sandy Denny


Why do you whisper, green grass,
Why tell the trees what aint so?
Whispering grass,
The trees dont have to know.

Why tell them all your secrets,
Who kissed there long ago?
Whispering grass,
The trees dont need to know.

Dont you tell it to the breeze,
`cos she will tell the birds and bees,
And everyone will know
Because you told them once before.
Yes you told them once before,
Its no secret anymore.

Why tell them all the old things,
Theyre buried under the snow.
Whispering grass, dont tell the trees,
cos the trees dont need to know.

Now dont you tell it to the breeze
`cos she will tell the birds and bees,
And everyone will know
Because you told them once before.
Yes you told them once before,
Its no secret anymore.

Why tell them all the old things,
Theyre buried under the snow.
Whispering grass, dont tell the trees,
cos the trees dont need to know.
