Lyrics
Verse 1 Times I come to see you, get few and far between, I thought I'd always come here every day.. My sweetest memories, are us benieth this tree, Where we first made love now where your ashes lay.. Verse 2 The trunk of this old Willow, still holds our forty years, I hold on to that knife that carved our names.. I brought a basket and a blanket, memories and tears, As I drop pedals to the ground from this big bouquet.. Chorus This Willow's grown so strong.. it gathers strength from you, Your breath is in the air.. I feel your spirit too.. A salty drop fell on my lip, it seeped out from this tree.. As I lie here and cry.. even the Willow weeps. Verse 3 We had come back every year, until you had to stay, It's sooner now I'll lay with you again.. On the ground below, my ashes will blow, Back to you when I'm cast to the wind.. Bridge I feel your touch as I lay here on the ground.. I close my eyes and see, two young lover's fooling 'round.. We've wiped each others tears, from each others cheeks, And now a salty tear, seeps out from this tree.. Chorus This Willow's grown so strong.. it gathers strength from you, Your breath is in the air.. I feel your spirit too.. A salty drop fell on my lip, it seeped out from this tree.. As I lie here and cry.. even the Willow weeps.
