Karrin Allyson - Footprints

A Tree And Me

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Please no cold headstone for me
Id rather plant a sappling tree
And lay my ashes neath its foot
So through my body it takes root
Then as the seasons come and go
My monument and I will grow
Wave bright green flags at summer sky
And harbor birds that happen by
The bronze each autumn bloom would spring
And where the white coats winters bring
A tree I marry with my dust
Will husband me with rooted thrust
Our seed will scatter far and wide
Cross Gods fertile countryside
So an arbor family will share our immortality
A tree and me

ooh, ooh, ooh

A tree and me
