"Fever Tree" lyrics - THE BLACK KEYS

THE BLACK KEYS
"Fever Tree"

On a long lost night, on my own
Oh, she comes to me, so all alone
I offer shelter, safe from the night
She says nothin', just turns out the light

[Chorus:]
She said, "All I want from you, is everything"
Bury all my love, beneath the fever tree
She said, "All I want from you, is everything"
Bury all my love, beneath the fever tree

Between the shadows, and circumstance
Blood on the flowers, tears in the glass
She's gone tomorrow, no sun today
I swallow all of this, and try to walk away

[Chorus:]
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah, hey, yeah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah, hey, yeah

[Instrumental break]

You got the hammer, you got the nails
I give you both my hands, leave me locked in jail
I'm just a prisoner, you say that I am free
To spend the rest of my days, beneath the fever tree

[Chorus:]
Sing for sorrow, sing for me
Hang my heart out, on the fever tree
Sing for sorrow, sing for free
Hang my heart out, on the fever tree
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah, hey, yeah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Nah, nah-nah
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah, hey, yeah
