Speak in tongues and both look green
Winter comes and posture screams
Waiting for the clouds to turn around and leave
An absent father kills another lonely tree
Another week still water free
Color dims, pale as can be
Waiting for the spring to come and set you free
A saddened mother kills another lonely tree
Been around too long to die
Beneath the earth my roots lie
Dug real deep and brought me home
In a pot I shall grow
Give me a drink whenever I'm dry
Play me a song to cure my mind
Dig real deep, give me a new home
I will shed, but new leaves will grow
Spring is here, plant the seeds
The sun shines longer than you'd think
Grow real strong, this time you will succeed
The parent's son won't let them kill another tree
Been around too long to die
Beneath the earth my roots lie
Dug real deep and brought me home
In a pot I shall grow
Give me a drink whenever I'm dry
Play me a song to cure my mind
Dig real deep, give me a new home
I will shed, but new leaves will grow
