Tree

Every now and then

Everything comes up roses

But you know me and all I know is

Right from day one our

Days were numbered

But you kicked up a storm

When I stole your thunder

We're twisted together

We're intertwined

You can peel us apart

Like orange rind

Patience is a virtue

I really didn't mean to hurt you

What do I have to say to convince you

After all this time after

All we've been through

Good things come to those who wait

But it's getting late

If you had no idea of

What you wanted

How could I have known

What you would need

And I miss you but the

Kiss that you planted

Has grown into a beautiful tree

If you had no idea of what you wanted

How could I have known what you would need

And I miss you but the kiss that you planted

Has grown into a beautiful tree
