Willow

Willow walk with me
Leave your love the river
To run her solitary course
From bottomland to sea.

Willow walk with me
Legends say you can
Shake off the long green leaves
And take the shape of a man.

Willow walk with me
Tell of your love who drowned
And makes you weep
And spend your life eternally
Beside the waters deep.

Tell me how she fell
When the hurricane came through
And though you tried to save her
There was nothing you could do.
You could not move, could you?
Willow wipe your tears
And hear me when I say
Though you'll not find her here
You'll be with your love one day,

When all goes to the source
And all is reunited with the core
And all is peace forever
And discord is no more.
