Tree to Grow - The Lone Bellow

And you told me you were sorry

And you did not want to pray

Looked outside your window

As I went outside away

The street it was much warmer

On my bare feet than the rain

That fell out of the sky

Just like my thoughts fell from that day, oh

I poured out one more handful of the rain that fell that day

I collected in my spare time

As I walked back home that way

In the night you said you’re sorry

In the night my colors changed

I waved at you from outside

As you screamed of all my shame

I’ll never leave, I’ll always stay

I swear on all that I keep safe

I’ll never leave, I’ll always stay

I swear on all that I keep safe

A tree I’ll grow, to let you know

My love is older than my soul

A tree I’ll grow, to let you know

My love is older than my soul

A tree I’ll grow, to let you know

My love is older than my soul

A tree I’ll grow, to let you know

My love is older than my soul

Your brutal smile, your well-known face

Your tappin shoes, your wicked grace

Your precious time, your darker days

The days I left you with no space

To breathe or even think of me

Without the worry that I’ll always leave

I’ll never leave, I’ll always stay

I swear on all that I keep safe

I’ll never leave, I’ll always stay

I swear on all that I keep safe

I’ll never leave, I’ll always stay

I swear on all that I keep safe

I’ll never leave, I’ll always stay

I swear, I swear, I swear, I swear

But it gets harder and harder

But my love is older than my soul

But my love is older than my soul

But it gets harder and harder

But my love is older than my soul

But my love is older than my soul

A tree I’ll grow, to let you know

My love is older than my soul

A tree I’ll grow, to let you know

My love is older than my soul

A tree I’ll grow, to let you know

My love is older than my soul

A tree I’ll grow, to let you know

My love is older than my soul
