Lyrics

Hunted down I came upon
A place of ferns and grass
Gathered to a redbud tree
And now their footsteps pass
Where I crouch in dread
Discovery my certain death
Her Leaves reaching for my head
As I suspend my breath
Redbud tree shelter me
Shelter me
Redbud tree shelter me
Shelter me
Those days I fear are gone
Yet I am pledged to her
As to my only one
My lovely protector
Redbud tree shelter me
Shelter me
Redbud tree shelter me
Shelter me
Redbud tree shelter me
Shelter me
Redbud tree shelter me
Shelter me
