I play pennywhistle and Irish flute.
I play informally at various venues. I also go to SongMakers, a California music group.
Story behind the song
The melody is what draws me to this title. I attempt versions with themes about faith, about nature, but it is the the metaphor of falling trees and falling tears that has the strongest lure. It reminds me of the RMMS (rec.music.makers.songwriting newsgroup) "Fallen Trees" theme that many songwriters there had a hand at.
Lyrics
1) When the Trees Fall Down
When the trees fall down, without a trace, without an audible sound,
When the tears roll down, upon your face, without an audible sound,
When lightning strikes, never think twice, thunder comes with the hail
When heart break comes, always believe, that love will always prevail...
[v1]
So break my heart with a thunder clap, blister, burn and travail.
And I will learn, I will know, that love will always prevail.
When the trees fall down, without a trace, without an audible sound,
When the tears roll down, upon your face, without an audible sound,
When lightning strikes, never think twice, thunder comes with the hail
When heart break comes, always believe, that love will always prevail...
[v2]
As lightning brings fire, a storm brings a drenching gale
As heart break makes liars, tears and a forlorn tale.
