Tree to Grow

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
