King Of Trees

He was the king of trees

Keeper of the leaves

A deep green god of young

Love stained memory

We used to meet by him

Far from the hustling town

I loved you

Now they've come to cut you down

..down



He was the guardian of days

We held the same

Beneath the shade he gave

Shelter from the rain

Oh lord how its empty now

With nothing save the breeze

Now they've come to burn the leaves

Don't burn the leaves



And if my mind breaks up

In all so many ways

I know the meaning of

The words i love you

And if my body falls inside

An early grave

The forest and the evergreens

Are coming to take me back

So slowly as i roll

Down the track



The forest and the evergreens

Are coming to take me back

The forest and the evergreens

Are coming to take me back

Please take me back



He was the king of trees

Keeper of the glades

The way he enchanted my life

Makes me so amazed

We used to meet by him

Many years ago

I love you

Now they've come to lay the road

Don't lay the road
