Willow Tree - Candice Jones

lyrics:
[verse]
Morning whispers, through the trees
With the light, a gentle breeze
You awaken nature's choir
In your presence, spirits fly higher

[verse]
Underneath the willow tree, where the river flows,
Whispering winds carry secrets no one knows.
Shadows dance, and the sun breaks through,
A quiet place where I found you.

[instrumental break]

[chorus]
Willow tree, in the quiet rain,
Whispering leaves call my name.
Bend with the wind, dance with the sky,
Willow tree, your roots run deep,
Under your branches, I learn to fly.
In your arms, I rest and sleep.

[verse]
The sunlight dances on the forest floor,
Casting shadows of the life I knew before.
In your shade, I hear the rivers sigh,
A lullaby as time drifts by.

[soft instrumental break]

[chorus]
Willow tree, in the quiet rain,
Whispering leaves call my name.
Bend with the wind, dance with the sky,
Willow tree, your roots run deep,
Under your branches, I learn to fly.
In your arms, I rest and sleep.

[bridge] [alternate melody]
Morning glory climbs where the sunlight lies,
Reaching for the dawn in painted skies.
In a rose garden, promises can break,
But beneath the willow, there’s no heartache.

[haunting folk instrumental hook]

[verse]
Seasons change, yet you remain,
A constant through joy and pain.
In your branches, memories weave,
Lessons learned with each fallen leaf.

[instrumental interlude]

[outro]
Beneath the willow's gentle sway,
Morning glories greet the day.
When comes dawn, they'll dance once more,
Two spirits are joined in nature's lore.
