Weeping Willow Tree (Duet Version) ft. Gary Clute Lyrics

Sheltered from the busy world

With you safely in my arms

I'd read you my favorite poems

Until all your fears were gone

In those beautifully aged books

Were love prose of poets past

They reminded me of us

And the future that we'd have

Each moment I spent with you

Was better than the last

I wish we'd had more time

But it passed by so fast

I could've stayed there forever

In that summer breeze

Getting lost in your eyes

Beneath that weeping willow tree

In that peaceful place we'd found

My head resting in your lap

Gazing out at a still blue pond

As birds flew overhead

We tried staying there forever

In that safe serenity

Cemented by our initials

Carved in that willow tree

Those moments I spent with you

Would pass by way too fast

I wish we'd taken time

To make our love story last

I could've stayed there with you

Feeling loved in that soft breeze

Getting lost in your eyes

Beneath that weeping willow tree

Our tree stood tall as years passed by

Awaiting new lovers to arrive

They'd carve initials next to ours

Dreaming under that same blue sky

But the pages of our story

Blew away with a winter's wind

Now I only wish we could

Relive that time again

I should've stayed there with you

In that summer breeze

I loved getting lost in your eyes

Beneath our weeping willow tree

I loved getting lost in your eyes

Beneath our weeping willow tree
