Under the Old Willow Tree
Under the old willow tree
We held hands with naïvety
Shared secrets in the shade
Walked away, a relationship made
Under the old willow tree
We kissed, embraced, so passionately
Lay ablaze in each others arms
Feeling safe, away from harms
Under the old willow tree
We made love, so feverishly
Our beings combined, our love became one
We'd be together 'til our lives are done
Under the old willow tree
You vowed to remain with me
Sealed our union with a kiss
Nothing could ever be remiss
Under the old willow tree
We sat with our daughter, gleefully
On a blanket we sat amiably
A picnic shared as a family
Under the old willow tree
Our girl married her fiancé
"Oh, they grow up so fast"
Memories made become memories past
Under the old willow tree
Your lifeless body lay before me
It was hard to say goodbye
You weren't the only one that died
Under the old willow tree
I sat alone, for eternity
Longing to once more see you
If only that wish could just come true
