Willow Tree

Nine years ago
We were all dressed to go
On with our lives
With a burning inside
This willow tree
That you gave to me
We left to die in the sun
When the rains would not come
Cause it’s a long way to come to regret
Yeah it’s a long way to come
You look at me now
As we fathom out how
We survived the onslaught
That the ages have wrought
And this willow tree
What it means to me?
It survives and remains
Through the wind and the rain
Cause it’s a long way to come to regret
Yeah it’s a long way to come to regret
Yeah it’s a long way to come
Yeah it’s a long way to come
