Giving Tree Lyrics

I think it's time for a change of pace

I think it's time I quit hogging my own shade

My bark is thin but my roots run deep

The wind will blow but I will be unafraid

I'll give you my apples, my branches and

You'll sail on, and I'll remain here

I'll give you my leaves and my trunk, and I'll

Count these rings just hoping for you

After all that's what giving trees do

After all that's what giving trees do

I think for now I'll just hide your blade

And feel the moss as it covers me over

But if you ever return home late

I'll be here, and

I'll give you my apples, my branches and

You'll sail on, and I'll remain here

I'll give you my leaves and my trunk, and I'll

Count these rings just hoping for you

After all that's what giving trees do

(I'll give you my apples, my branches and)

After all that's what giving trees do

(You'll sail on, and I'll remain here)

After all that's what giving trees do

(I'll give you my leaves and my trunk, and I'll)

After all that's what giving trees do

(Count these rings just hoping for you)
