The Dead Tree of Our Love By Bobbie Cree M. April 16th, 2006 It's been 2 years from today When you left my life and went away I said some hurtful things back then They keep playing in my head over and over again I don't know why I said the things I said Back then I wish I knew what was going on inside my head It seemed as if it was a life-time ago If only I would've known then what I now know All these memories come back to me Our love was like a tree Every branch was a memory The people around us would cause the wind And sometimes the tree would bend But oh how tall our tree still stood If only I could make you understand, I would That tree I would climb And gather every leaf from every limb For the leaves were our emotions, and I'd give them all to him Then finally maybe he would remember them But the tree is now dead And those crisped up leaves the tree has shed But the memories are still there Lost in their lonely despair
