Whispering Grass

You promised me, green grass, not to tell what you heard

Whispering grass, say, you can't keep your word

Keep your word

Why do you whisper, green grass?

Why tell the trees what ain't so?

Whispering grass, the trees don't have to know

No, no, why tell them all your secrets?

Who kissed there long ago?

Whispering grass, the trees don't need to know

Don't you tell it to the breeze

'Cause she will tell the birds and bees

And everyone will know

Because you told the blabberin' trees

Yes, you told them once before

It's no secret any more

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

Why do you whisper, green grass?

Why tell the trees what ain't so?

Whispering grass, the trees don't have to know

No, no, why tell them all your secrets?

Who kissed there long ago?

Whispering grass, the trees don't need to know

Don't you tell it to the breeze

'Cause she will tell the birds and bees

And everyone will know

Because you told the blabberin' trees

Yes, you told them once before

It's no secret any more

Why tell them all the old things?

They're buried under the snow

Whispering grass, don't tell the trees
