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 it’s empty now with nothing save the breeze, I love you |
| 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, back |
| Please take me back |
| He was the King of trees keeper of the glades |
| The way he lightened my life makes me so amazed |
| We used to meet by him many years ago, I loved you |
| Now they’ve come to lay the road, don’t lay the road |
