Willow, weep for me Bow your tallest tree Down to the infamous hands Of someone no one understands
I'm not unique in this It's based on none but my mistake At night I lie awake Thinking of all the hearts I'd happily break
It's cruel I know At least they tell me so Well someone lock me up and throw away the key Because I'm not ashamed, oh no Oh, willow
That I only write love songs To those whom I don't love I only reach for him Who's tied to someone else's glove That which I hold inside Which I admire and deride Which I protect and hide is yours
Willow, weep for me Don't think I don't see This life I'm living in two But still it's something I must do I'm not unique in this Nor am I special, sweet or kind I court a thousand smiles Yet I keep my own to hide behind
It's cruel I know At least they tell me so Well someone lock me up and throw away the key Because I'm not ashamed, oh no Oh, willow
That I only write love songs To those whom I don't love I only reach for him Who's tied to someone else's glove That which I hold inside Which I admire and deride Which I protect and hide is yours
Slander and dissention They're parlor games to me Papers overrun with lies too mad to mention You say they never hurt you No consequence, I'm happy We're much too far above it all But oh no, that's not true
These wicked pastimes take their toll These tyrant vices break your soul Deliver me from all I am And all I never want to be
I love you (Oh willow, willow, willow) Doubt me not Rewrite this plot for all to see
And I only write love songs To those whom I don't love I only reach for him Who's tied to someone else's glove That which I hold inside Which I admire and deride Which I protect and hide is yours
Bend your branches to the ground and hold me close
Let me harmonize with all we knew Share your sympathy and weep for me Oh, willow, heal the hearts I've broken Make me pure and start my song anew
For I only write love songs To those whom I don't love I only reach for him Who's tied to someone else's glove That which I hold inside Which I admire and deride Which I protect and hide is yoursTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
