Boy's Golden Dollar

When he was young
He was no taller
Than the second branch
Of the tree
In the back yard
He waited 248 days for
The leaves to turn pink
For the apples to grow
And for his heart to sink
He'll call out
When it's time to see
The beauty
Of an old apple tree

And the pages of his life
Just keep turning
But nobody stops for just one tree
And the pages of his life
Just keep turning
Nobody stops for just one tree

And now it's five years later
And the trunk's been severed
But the roots
Still lie below
And he cuts is own hair
Without a mirror
He no longer cares about it
And the glare of the eyes
Of the passerbys
Are too much to handle

It's too much
She doesn't know how
How much you could
Ever love her

And the pages of his life
Just keep turning
But nobody stops for just one tree
And the pages of his life
Just keep turning
But nobody stops for just one tree
