The Weeping Willow by The Bullfight Lyrics

There is a tree always hanging over me
The branches softly rock me in the wind
Still they throw the shadows

When I was young mama pointed at the street
"If you don't know who you are
Just sit under the mighty weeping willow"

There are days on which I feel great
The sunshine is everywhere
But not under this willow

Loneliness is killing me
Mama said that destiny's a
Horse without a saddle

I met a girl, she laid no flowers in my house
And for sometime I forgot the old tree
And its long shadow

But then I lost her and, oh when I found her
Her head down in the water
Under the weeping willow
Long lonely twigs, killing amarillo
He has his fingers in everything
The mighty weeping willow

Loneliness is part of me
Mama said, when she left me
Under its shadows

Returning home again, on my own again
The sheets and the pillows, brief fantasies and sorrows
The roots engorge themselves with all that tries to grow
The grass is withered and black
Around the weeping willow
