Willow Tree

Under the willow tree, that's where I wait for you

To come back to me, but you're so far away

I just sit right here in the morning sun

And I wait under the willow tree

It was bitter seed that you left that day

When you walked out my door screaming, get out of my face

I took all your hurtin' words, I took your bad deeds

And I buried 'em deep underneath that tree

Under the willow tree, that's where I wait for you

To come back to me, but you're so far away

I just sit right here in the morning sun

And I wait under the willow tree

But such beauty grew from bitterness

Oh, how it's helped to heal this heavy heart

And I want you to know, yeah, that it's okay

If you come back, I would welcome you like it was yesterday

Under the willow tree, that's where I wait for you

To come back to me, but you're so far away

I just sit right here in the morning sun

And I wait under the willow tree

Oh, and I'm not asking you for union

I want your promise to be true, oh

'Cause I've been around the world

Honey, I've seen enough to know

There ain't nobody else I'd rather walk with than you

Under the willow tree, that's where I wait for you

To come back to me, but you're so far away

I just sit right here and I play my guitar

And I wait under the willow tree

Under the willow tree
