Neil Levin - Sultry Have Gone the Roses

Shady Tree

Well the rain don't drip where the sun can see
And it don't go pourin' under a shady tree
If you'd be my lady in the roaring sea
The only you'd see would be comin' down on me

I'll be your shady tree to protect thee
I'll be your shady tree to protect thee

If the rain keeps drippin' I'll sink like a log
I'll drown to the bottom and I'll feel like it's where I belong
You keep convincin' me, convincin' me I'm wrong
Where have I been goin' all along

I'll be your shady tree to protect thee
I'll be your shady tree to protect thee
I'll be your shady tree to protect thee
I'll be your shady tree to protect thee

You cheated my values and trusted me farther than my malleable form
You broke me backwards and bruised me
My ego could feel the scorn
And now it's all over, the battles been over and won
But I gave away all of my branches
And tree trunks don't live on

I was your shady tree forever and on
Now I ain't your shady tree
My giving days are gone
I was your shady tree forever and on
Now I ain't your shady tree
My giving days are gone
