Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Why do you whisper, green grass?
Why tell the trees what ain't so?
Whispering grass, the trees don't have to know
Why tell them all your secrets?
Who kissed there long ago?
Whispering grass, the trees don't need to know
[Verse 2]
Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know because you told the blabbing trees
Yes, you told them once before
It's no secret, no secret anymore
[Verse 3]
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't need to know
[Verse 4]
Don't you tell it to the breeze
'Cause she will tell the birds and bees
And everyone will know because you told the blabbing trees
Yes, you told them, you told them once before
It's no secret, no secret anymore
[Verse 5]
Why tell them all the old things?
They're buried under the snow
Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
'Cause the trees don't have to know
