willow:

willow, weep for me
bow your tallest tree
down to the infamous hands
of someone no one understands

i’m not unique in this
it’s based on none but my mistake
at night i lie awake
thinking of all the hearts
i’d happily break

it’s cruel, i know
at least they tell me so
well, someone lock me up
and throw away the key
because i’m not ashamed, oh no
oh, willow

[refrain]
that i only write love songs
to those whom i don’t love
i only reach for him
who’s tied to someone else’s glove
that which i hold inside
which i admire and deride
which i protect and hide is yours

willow, weep for me
don’t think i don’t see
this life i’m living in two
but still it’s something i must do

i’m not unique in this
nor am i special, sweet or kind
i court a thousand smiles
yet i keep my own to hide behind

it’s cruel, i know
at least they tell me so
well, someone lock me up
and throw away the key
because i’m not ashamed, oh no
oh, willow

[refrain]
that i only write love songs
to those whom i don’t love
i only reach for him
who’s tied to someone else’s glove
that which i hold inside
which i admire and deride
which i protect and hide is yours

and i only write love songs
to those whom i don’t love
i only reach for him
who’s tied to someone else’s glove
that which i hold inside
which i admire and deride
which i protect and hide is yours

slander and dissention
they’re parlor games to me
papers overrun with lies
too mad to mention
you say they never hurt you
no consequence, i’m happy
we’re much too far above it all
but, oh no, that’s not true

these wicked pastimes take their toll
these tyrant vices break your soul
deliver me from all i am
and all i never want to be

[oh, willow, willow, willow]
i love you
doubt me not
rewrite this plot for all to see

[refrain]
and i only write love songs
to those whom i don’t love
i only reach for him
who’s tied to someone else’s glove
that which i hold inside
which i admire and deride
which i protect and hide is yours
is yours

bend your branches to the ground
and hold me close
let me harmonize with all that we knew
share your sympathy and weep for me
oh, willow, heal the hearts i’ve broken
make me pure and start my song anew

[refrain]
for i only write love songs
to those whom i don’t love
i only reach for him
who’s tied to someone else’s glove
that which i hold inside
which i admire and deride
which i protect and hide is yours

and i only write love songs
to those whom i don’t love
i only reach for him
who’s tied to someone else’s glove
that which i hold inside
which i admire and deride
which i protect and hide is yours
is yours
is yours
