Pining Away
Though a maelstrom makes you leave
Like a tree, I bend toward thee
A damsel down on bended knee
My knotty heart, she bleeds and bleeds
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
I spied a speck within your eye
But t'was a log that made me cry
From the sawmill of my mind
A forest fell and made me blind
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
While my roots are long displaced
I ran to where few humans race
A tumbleweed in time and space
May my footsteps leave no disgrace
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you, for you
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
Once her branches rose as graceful chandeliers
Her leafy crown now bows low, is hung with tears
Concentric circles mark the years
Lining the trunk as faded souvenirs
Like a tree, I bend toward thee
A damsel down on bended knee
My knotty heart, she bleeds and bleeds
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
I spied a speck within your eye
But t'was a log that made me cry
From the sawmill of my mind
A forest fell and made me blind
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
While my roots are long displaced
I ran to where few humans race
A tumbleweed in time and space
May my footsteps leave no disgrace
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you, for you
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
Pining away, pining away
Pining away for you
Once her branches rose as graceful chandeliers
Her leafy crown now bows low, is hung with tears
Concentric circles mark the years
Lining the trunk as faded souvenirs
