Lyrics Orange Tree - Devon Graves

Orange Tree

Little orange tree you’ll never know
The hope you bring to me
A flash of color when all the world is gray
A taste of sunshine when its warmth is miles away
For when the cold sets in, I’m convinced once again
That winter’s come this time to stay
And I fear the night will finally triumph
In swallowing the day
Oh when the winter winds begin to blow
And ev’ry living thing / lies / under the ground
You prove new life can be found
In the midst of snow, life can grow
Little orange tree, you really are a mistery
A thing so fragile, yet so strong
This winter’s killing everything
Yet somehow you hold on
Oh when the winter winds begin to blow
And ev’ry living thing / lies / under the ground
You prove new life can be found
In the midst of snow, life can grow
Oh life can grow
Life can grow, life can grow
If it were up to me, I’d bypass this season totally
And hibernate till spring arrives
Yet perhaps, the hardest seasons produce
The sweetest fruit in our lives
