A Tree Falls lyrics
by John Mayer
[Verse 1]
If a tree falls in a forest, won't it always make a sound?
Why the hell would it care if there's anyone around?
The sun will keep on burning if it's covered by a cloud
And we'll all go on living if the internet goes down
[Chorus]
And I'll still write another song even if you don't hear
I'll still feel I'm getting old even without a mirror
The world will keep on turning, even when the people go
And I'll still love you even if you never know
[Verse 2]
There's places in the ocean wherе nobody's ever been
Speciеs in the jungle hiding from the scientists
If they die undiscovered, it don't mean they don't exist
Maybe all the purest things prefer no witnesses
[Chorus]
'Cause I'll still write another song even if you don't hear
I'll still feel I'm getting old even without a mirror
The world will keep on turning, even when the people go
And I'll still love you even if you never know
[Verse 3]
I sit and think about you as the trees fly past the train
The edges of your smile and the letters in your name
Whisper all the things I know I'm not supposed to say
It never saw me hit the ground, but I fell all the same
[Chorus]
And I'll still write another song even if you don't hear
Nothing hurts a heart as much as trying not to feel
The world just keeps on turning, and it's got no one to show
So I'll still love you even if you never know
I'll still love you even if you never know
