A Forest Interlude (Donkey Kong Country 2) lyrics by DiscoCactus

The forest sighs
A vague memory
Look for the sun
But can’t find the light between the trees

(And I’m) wide awake, (but) still I dream
That you’re in my arms
(I reach for your) hand again, forgetting that
You’ve faded in the dark

(And) even when we walked the path
The way was fraught with thorns
(And) when I try to tear them down
They rise up even more

When I look up
You’re catching the clouds
While down below
I’ve vanished inside the forest’s shroud

(And) still I drеam, the sky above
Is ours to roam
(And then I am) tumbling down, a falling star
Without a way back homе

(And) even when we walked the path
The way was fraught with thorns
(And) when I try to tear them down
They rise up even more

I see your face, above the waves, I try to fight
While the water turns to fire
Waiting for your hand to reach back
(And) Pull me out

Drowning in the rising flames
Sinking faster as my burning heart
Turns to stone

The forest sings
A soft melody
I hear my name
A comforting whisper in the trees

The dream is gone, the path is clear
And I’ve found my way
(And yet) every step I take is driving me
Back down the way I came

I run into the rain, stinging on my skin
Twisting and turning, grasping for the dream
I climb onto the thorns, racing to the sky
Pushing and pulling, gasping, as I reach
To the stars
