The Pine Tree

I lean my back against you thinkin' you were an oakI knew the wind could bend you but I can't believe you brokeNow the wind could never break me only your false loveHoney I've been true I swear by God aboveI thought you were a willow but you never wept for meYou went roamin' in the wildwood like a ship that roams the seeThe willow tree is fickle and it weeps in the morning dewMy love is a pine tree cause that's the only tree that's trueIf I was mistaken then take my eyes awayYou made a bed in the wildwood and that's where I saw you layHoney your eyes deceived you it's true I touched the groundBut I never slept there I never let my long hair down mhmLove is like a thorn bush touch it and you will findYou'll prick your fingers and leave the sweetest flower behindLove oh love oh what you done to meYou set me a driftin' like a ship upon the seaYes a ship there is I see you and you belong to meMy love is the ocean and deeper love cannot beYeah well I guess I was mistaken and woman I want you backYou never have left my heart now honey baby that's a factCome to me pine tree and we will never partWe'll put our roots down in each other's heartCome to me pine tree and we will never partWe'll put our roots down in each other's heart
