My Weeping Willow Tree

Weeping willow tree
Come and save me
From falling into the dark
Leave me your peaceful mark

Weeping willow tree
Come and set me free
So that I can fly away tonight
And no longer have to fight

Weeping will tree
Be my eyes and let me see
All the things that I might miss
And experience all this happiness

Weeping willow tree
Come away with me
You can be the strength I need
And follow the path that will lead

Weeping will tree
Hear my quiet, quiet plea
I'd be grateful if you'd cleansed my soul
And fill me up so that I am full

Weeping willow tree
Lift me up so that I can see
The harsh world from the sky
And when it's time I'll say good bye

Weeping willow tree
You make it possible for me to be
The strongest person that you'll see
So thank you for always being with me

Let's cry tonight and let it out
Let's spill our secrets, scream and shout
Try not to stay in one place too long
The weeping willow tree will keep us strong
