Tree of Love
GANGgajang Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every night when the sun goes down and cool air with calm surrounds
The silent garden in which can be found the tree of love
Every night you can find me there with sweating palms and matted hair
And drops of blood dot the sand everywhere under the tree of love

And you can hear them whispering under the tree of love
And you can see them - under the tree of love can be found every saint and every sinner
As they paw the desert ground for the fruit that falls each night from the tree of love

Some nights there are many there and murmurs fill the desert air
Odd and evens trying to make a pair under the tree of love
On and on as the darkness falls the wistful sound of the searchers calls
Are heard within and without the walls around the tree of love

And you can hear them talking under the tree of love
And you can see them - under the tree of love can be found every heel and every hero
As they scour the desert sands for the fruit that falls each night from the tree of love

Last night, before the end, I found myself under the tree again
The branches break as the bones they bend under the tree of love

And you can hear them shouting under the tree of love
And you can see them - under the tree of love can be found every saint and every sinner
As they search the desert ground for the fruit that falls each night from the tree of love
They paw the desert ground for the fruit that falls each night from the tree of love
They scour the ground for the fruit that falls each night from the tree of love





Under the tree of love you will find me waiting

Overall Meaning

"Tree of Love" by GANGgajang is a melancholic song that revolves around the idea of a tree that drops fruits every night. The singer is always waiting by the tree with sweating palms and matted hair, and drops of blood dotting the sand, indicating he has been searching for the fruit relentlessly. The tree of love is frequented by every saint and sinner, every hero and every heel, all waiting for the fruit to fall so they can grab it. The searchers come odd and even, trying to make a pair, essentially highlighting the universal human desire for love.


The song suggests that the search for love can take a toll on a person. Still, they keep coming back in the hope of finding it. The branches of the tree of love break as the bones they bend, which could be interpreted as a warning that too much searching and hoping for love can break a person's spirit. The lyrics of the song also hint at the idea of death, as the singer claims to have found himself under the tree of love before the end.


The song has a beautiful melody, and the lyrics are thought-provoking, as they explore the universal human need for love. The Tree of Love represents the quest for love and the search for a soul mate. In many ways, it is a modern-day adaptation of the Garden of Eden, where the fruit represents love, and only the lucky few get to taste it.
