Weeping Willow
I am the weeping willow
Inside your garden green
And I hope that you can hear me
Hear me as I scream
Into your bedroom window
As you soundly sleep
To that quiet thumping
Of your heart-beat
And I hope that I am with you
To make your day feel bright
But I've gone and went so far away
To a place that won't feel right
Until I see your shining face
Shining out into the world
Shining out to give me sight,
Because it seems so lonely here without you
But you get me through the night
And into the morning
Because I think you might, have
Dreamed of me last night
Dreamed I would be coming home
To hold you close to me.
Now I miss you more than breathing
And I am writing you a song
To help your patience wait for me
To help you feel like you belong
And your inside my long-lost heart.
Inside my long-lost song.
Because I think you might, have
Dreamed of me, inside your garden green
Dreamed that I would sit and sing
In the right piano key
To help you through your nights and days
To help you think of me.
Now that I have made it here
I don't know why I'd ever leave
But then I'll think of how you'll smile
When you finally see
This plan I have for the two of us
This plan won't believe
So we'll bring along a camera
To capture of memories,
To keep them deep inside hearts ,
To keep them in our dreams,
And I am the weeping willow
As we float downstream
Like something from a movie
Or something from a dream.
I just want you to know that I care
That I think your perfect,
And you'll see when we get there
I'll bring that smile through
To see those bright eyes shine
To see the real you.
I miss you
And I don't think they understand
How I wish I was a child
And you my mother's hand
And I am the weeping willow
Inside your garden green
That intrudes upon your loneliness
And intrudes upon your dreams
And I hope one day you'll love me
Like a love I've never seen
You'll intrude upon this loneliness
And intrude upon my dreams
