Okkervil River - Willow Tree lyrics
[Okkervil River - Willow Tree lyrics]
And if I was some little swallow
Had little wings and I could fly
Drop out of sight of my own true lover
And there I'd sit 'Til the day I die
And if I was some little sparrow
Had little wings and I could fly
Flap out of sight of my own true lover
And there'd I'd sing 'Til the day I 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'd drink
Would be my tears
Had little wings and I could fly
Drop out of sight of my own true lover
And there I'd sit 'Til the day I die
And if I was some little sparrow
Had little wings and I could fly
Flap out of sight of my own true lover
And there'd I'd sing 'Til the day I 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'd drink
Would be my tears
