Weeping Willow
I'm a weeping willow
I dangle my branches in the water
Rest my head in the clouds my pillow
I'm the best weeper I know
I'm a weeping, weeping willow
When I was just a young sproutling
I couldn't wait to see what kinda tree I would grow to be
I dug my toes into my surroundings
Just to see how far my little roots could take me
Aimed my thorny crown up towards the sunlight
Let my leaves grow into a weave
Felt completely at ease
With the birds and the bees
Cos there was no place else I could physically be
I'm a weeping willow
I dangle my branches in the water
Rest my head in the clouds my pillow
I'm the best weeper I know
I'm a weeping, I'm a weeping willow
I'm a weeping, I'm a weeping willow
Along came a man, he had an axe to grind
I'd been grinding my teeth in my sleep for some time
But I got a chip on my shoulder
From one like you who's no longer
So you'd best probably just leave me alone
Cos I'm a weeping willow
I dangle my branches in the water
Rest my head in the clouds my pillow
I'm the best weeper I know
I'm a weeping, I'm a weeping willow
I'm a weeping, I'm a weeping willow
Now I'm many things but not me
I'm still weeping but no longer willow shall be
But put on me some strings
Which allow me to sing
I'm the best weeper I know
I dangle my branches in the water
Rest my head in the clouds my pillow
I'm the best weeper I know
I'm a weeping, weeping willow
When I was just a young sproutling
I couldn't wait to see what kinda tree I would grow to be
I dug my toes into my surroundings
Just to see how far my little roots could take me
Aimed my thorny crown up towards the sunlight
Let my leaves grow into a weave
Felt completely at ease
With the birds and the bees
Cos there was no place else I could physically be
I'm a weeping willow
I dangle my branches in the water
Rest my head in the clouds my pillow
I'm the best weeper I know
I'm a weeping, I'm a weeping willow
I'm a weeping, I'm a weeping willow
Along came a man, he had an axe to grind
I'd been grinding my teeth in my sleep for some time
But I got a chip on my shoulder
From one like you who's no longer
So you'd best probably just leave me alone
Cos I'm a weeping willow
I dangle my branches in the water
Rest my head in the clouds my pillow
I'm the best weeper I know
I'm a weeping, I'm a weeping willow
I'm a weeping, I'm a weeping willow
Now I'm many things but not me
I'm still weeping but no longer willow shall be
But put on me some strings
Which allow me to sing
I'm the best weeper I know
