Cinnamon Tree

Cinnamon tree, graceful and free

We meet just once in a while but the spice in your smile is magic to me

Cinnamon tree, wise and sturdy

Your roots are firm in the ground to soak up whats around and make sweet seasoning, oh

Please rub off on me

So I carry a little of your auburn hue

For spice when days are dull or dreary

You bend your bows towards me

Times I'm weak and need someone to turn to

You share your flavor, ease my misery

You give all that you are

And just keep on growing

Your fragrance lives in all who know you

Cinnamon tree, grace falling free

We meet just once in a while but the spice in your smile is magic to me

Cinnamon tree, wise and sturdy

Your roots are firm in the ground to soak up whats around and make sweet seasoning, oh

It still amazes me

I just think of one stirring conversation

With you and my cup is filled with new infusions

And like your honesty

In the midst of all the sweetened chatter

Your earthy taste adds real perspective

You give all that you are

And just keep on growing

Your fragrance lives in all who love you

Cinnamon tree, graceful and free

We meet just once in a while but the spice in your smile is magic to me

Cinnamon tree, wise and sturdy

Your roots are firm in the ground to soak up whats around and make sweet seasoning, oh
