lyrics

So there I was among the trees, wandering just as I pleased. I never thought that I would leave. No pun intended. A lady left me standing; wobbly knees. I knew I'd fall: the fact that she's a million heartaches left in the weeds. So I sat down and wrote in reeds:

Meredith, now who you with, and why can't it be me? I've waited long and now it's time for me to leave the trees. Meredith, what's your wish? I'll grant you one for free. It shouldn't be a problem if it involves being with me.

Should she come with me, well, then I'd build a house of logs for them: the trees we've added to our glen. A family tree. God Bless. Amen.
