Discover the story of the song > I Can See the Pines Are Dancing – A.A. Bondy

The protagonist sings about different things that represent different emotions. He talks about a hammer, a hymn, a match, a blade, beauty, stars, echo, glory, pounding, mountains, lightning, man pulling on chains. Then he mentions that he can see the pines dancing and how he's leaving another love, howling at the moon, and burning like a fire. It seems like he's going through a period of intense feelings and maybe going through a breakup.
