I saw a willow in the field
I knew I had to climb
to scamper up the branches there
and leave the world behind
I head up through the treetops
just to see the sky above
to smell the sweetness in the air
and feel my distant love
I look below to see the ground
and feel I`ve gone too high
that`s when the squirrel jumped on my leg
and bit me in the thigh
I fell from grace and saw the earth
and feared the taste of dirt
I still recall my final thoughts
man this is gonna hurt
she nuzzled gently on my ear
to wake me from my slumber
I feel for bite marks on my leg
and ever do I wonder
she asks me very softly
how I knew our love would be
I said because you saved my ass
when I fell from the God Damn tree
Thoughts...
are like a gentle breeze
blowing thriugh thr treetops...
on a Summers day
Swirling through your mind
The memories begin to stir..
like the leaves of a Willow
Thoughts are timeless...
memories never end...
and the wind goes on forever
