Willow Tree
BRUCE SOORD
Nine years ago
We were all dressed to go
On with our lives
With a burning inside
And this willow tree
That you gave to me
We left to die in the sun
When the rains did not come
Because 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 this willow tree
That you gave to me
It survives and remains
Through the wind and the rain
Because it's a long way to come to regret
Yeah it's a long way to come
