One day many years ago,I decided
To go back to see my Willow tree.
As I passed by, I couldn't believe my eyes
Nowhere could I find my friend, my tree.
As I got out of my car, tears began to swell
Where was my old friend I knew so well?
Lanes of houses, where he used to stand.
All that was left was a plot of land.
As I walked so gingerly, came a woman up to me.
As I told her of my old tree.
She just smiled and said this to me.
Your name must be Cassy,I know you by heart.
I have waited ever so patiently.
I knew one day you would come to me,
I heard your named called endlessly.
I have a message, that I will sing.
That old tree, made me promise to sing to thee.
I know you will come back one day to me.
I know I have taught you well.
No more tears, no more shell.
That little girl, now stands tall.
I managed to break down your walls.
Love replaced all the hate,
Now is time to reciprocate.
Pass that on to the next you meet.
Teach them as I once taught you.
Never feel like you were beat,
A woman here, where a girl once stood.
Sorry to say,is a new neighborhood.
Everything will one day die.
You do not hear me cry!
I love you, with all my heart.
Now is time for a brand new start.
Walk away, remember me as I once was.
Sorry to say, we must now part.
Was a pleasure to know you dear.
This comes from my heart.
As I walked away, this lady just sighed.
As she was waving Good-Bye.
As I walked to my car,
I could still hear her sing her song.
Good-bye sweet Cassy, Good-bye my sweet tree
I will never forget this sad day.
Some things come, some things go.
Maybe another Weeping Willow Tree will grow.
