The Pine Tree Songtext
I lean my back against you thinkin' you were an oak I knew the wind could bend you but I can't believe you broke Now the wind could never break me only your false love Honey I've been true I swear by God above I thought you were a willow but you never wept for me You went roamin' in the wildwood like a ship that roams the see The willow tree is fickle and it weeps in the morning dew My love is a pine tree cause that's the only tree that's true If I was mistaken then take my eyes away You made a bed in the wildwood and that's where I saw you lay Honey your eyes deceived you it's true I touched the ground But I never slept there I never let my long hair down mhm Love is like a thorn bush touch it and you will find You'll prick your fingers and leave the sweetest flower behind Love oh love oh what you done to me You set me a driftin' like a ship upon the sea Yes a ship there is I see you and you belong to me My love is the ocean and deeper love cannot be Yeah well I guess I was mistaken and woman I want you back You never have left my heart now honey baby that's a fact Come to me pine tree and we will never part We'll put our roots down in each other's heart Come to me pine tree and we will never part We'll put our roots down in each other's heart
