Willow - Sarah Slean

Willow tree by the sea

Where the gods lie

How I love to look at you

With all my aching eye

Winter comes, winter kills

Let it go by

There’ll be better days

Willow

Don’t cry

Little star, shine afar

In the dark sky

You’re the one I’m wishing on

With all my weary might

Tell the trees, if you please

That it’s alright

There’ll be better days

Willow

Don’t cry

River bend

River sigh

River so wide

Wash away the worry

From my lonely heart tonight

Lover comes

Lover goes

Let him go by

There’ll be better days

Willow

Don’t cry
