Weeping Willow

In the dark I roam to you A silhouette of what we once knew Your branches they whisper low A lonely lullaby only we know Oh weeping willow, cry with me In your canopy I'm lost, I'm free Your tears they fall like mine As we gaze upon the world and sigh Summer's gone and weather's fair Leaving your looming presence bare Though autumn's chill I still walk the edges Just to reminisce with your remnants Oh weeping willow, cry with me In your canopy I'm lost, I'm free Your tears they fall like mine As we gaze upon the world and sigh In the traces of our memories A whispered promise still resonates Though time and tide may take their toll Our hearts remain, forever whole I'll follow your roots down to the water Where the waves speak secret fodder And within your embrace I'll find my way To the place where we both will stay Oh weeping willow, cry with me In your canopy I'm lost, I'm free Your tears they fall like mine As we gaze upon the world and sigh And when the night falls dark and deep I'll find my way to your silent sleep And in our dreams I'll whisper low Oh weeping willow, I'll be with you, I know
