Well Id been up all night
Watching this willow tree sway in the gentle light
Down by the lakeside
Listening to that old willows words
As she whispered things Id never listened for
Making them things Id never heard
So shamefully so
No one to blame but my own
Blame but my own
My own
Chorus:
But slowly now, slowly I go
Laying beside this old willow
Fusing her roots with my own
Learning slowly to grow
She said, youre just wandering
Searching for truth, for honesty
For something much deeper than what youve been clinging to
For something that will not deceive
Son just believe
And follow the river flow
Follow the old willow
Follow it down, down, down
So here now, now here now I go
Laying beside this old willow
Fusing her roots with my own
Learning slowly to grow
Bridge:
And follow the river flow
Follow the old willow
Follow it down, down, down
