The Mighty Oak Tree
For 300 years that tree stood
For 300 years it stood tall
But one night under darkess's hood
That Mighty Oak Did not see another fall
That tree has past throught time
Seeing animals play on its limbs
To the first of their new born
to the last of their lives
The fall would come and go
And the winter would begin
And summer was again
His friends would be home
People would visit and then go
Their love carved on him would show
He'd give up his time to makes things better
And fix a friendship so they could grow
But all it took was one dark night
There was thunder in the distance
Lightning was in in sight
The Great Tree still stood
The wind was howling
The Great Tree still stood
Holding dear his friends
The Great Tree still stood
The wind began to race
The Mighty Tree began to break
He shouted out "fly my friends!, make haste!
So you wil live to see days break"
The storm is over and the friends meet
To find him lying at their feet
They morn his death
But they know it was not his defeat
Years to come the tree will decay
His friends will move on to see another day
To where this Mighty Tree first life was start
Stands the birth of a new heart
