King Of Trees

He was the king of trees

keeper of the leaves,

A deep green guard of young

love-stained memory,

We used to meet by him

far from the hustling town

I loved you,

Now they've come to cut you down...down



He was the guardian of

days we held the same,

Beneath the shade he gave

shelter fromthe rain,

Oh Lord how it's empty now

with nothing save the breeze

I loved you,

Now they've come to burn the leaves

Don't burn the leaves



And if my mind breaks up in all

so many ways,

I know the meaning of the words "I love you",

And if my body falls inside

an early grave,

The forest and the evergreens

are coming to take me back,

So slowly

as I roll down the track



The forest and the evergreen

are coming to take me back,

The forest and the evergreen

are coming to take me back,

Please take me back!



He was the king of trees

Keeper of the glades,

The way he lightened my life

makes me so amazed,

We used to meet by him

many years ago

I loved you,

Now they've to lay the road-oh-oh,

Oh!

Don't lay the road
