[Verse 1]
One long year ago today
I stopped to hear a story told
Of how an old man
Was taken down to the roots below
[Verse 2]
She took my arm and walked alone
We climbed across this open field
She didn't pause for breath
Until this cross grew near
[Verse 3]
She sat down by this little mound
Softly, she'd weep and sigh
Come to me, my father
For I am lost inside
[Verse 4]
But since that time, how things have changed
For this sweet girl was my bride
She is laid down under
Close by her father's side
[Verse 5]
I planted there upon her grave
The sacred seed of a willow tree
I pray its long, hard roots
Forever shelter me
[Verse 6]
One long year ago today
I stopped to hear a story told
Of how an old man
Was taken down to the roots below
