Willow Tree

If you follow me
For a moment
To that willow tree 
And sit under its weeping embrace
I will tell you a secret
A secret so sacred that only the willow can hear it 
The willow and you
If you follow me
For a moment 
And sit under its weeping embrace.
I will tell you my secret like a story 
So grand
It was straight out of the bible 
With all its stakes and romance and fire and horror
I will play all the parts 
And narrate with my deepest sincere voice 
And I will hand you a program
Written in the weeping leaves 
One that gives only highlights
Because when I would have told you my secret
Under the weeping willow
No program long enough 
Could contain
A secret so sacred 
That I will only tell you 
One of these days 
Under a weeping willow 
When I build the courage 
To lead
And when you build the courage 
To follow me
For a moment
​To that willow tree.
