Lyrics for Willow Tree

And if I was some little swallow Had little wings and I could fly Fly by the sight of my own true lover And there I'd sit 'til the day I'd die And if I was some little sparrow Had little wings and I could fly Fly by the sight of my own true lover And there I'd sing 'til the day I'd die I would light in the arms of some weeping willow Sleep for weeks, months and years Wouldn't need nothing, but some weeping willow And what I drank would be my tears
