Lyrics
[Snippet]:
What you don't tell no one
You can tell me
Little ghost, tall tan
Like milk and honey
You're very brave
and you're very free
So swing it high cherry blossom
On your sycamore tree
What you don't tell no one
You can tell me
Swing it high like Jesus, baby
Little ghost, so fair
Like lemonade tea
