Hey Mr. Tree won't you walk with me
I see you standing on that hill
My path has crossed you once or twice before
And you're in the same place still

And now I'm lookin' for a love that will not move
I think I found it in the roots of you
So much security
But not a lot of chance
When the music plays, I'm left alone to dance

And now the path, it calls to me
There is a river to ford
It's flowin' free
I'm afraid I'll fall
I get tumbled to the shore

And now I'm lookin' for a love that will not move
I think I found it in the roots of you
So much security
But not a lot of chance
When the music plays, I'm left alone to dance

Mr. Tree can you comfort me'
Can I recover in your shade'
The river ravaged me
So with you I'll stay
