There’s an alone tree which lives near me,
And this alone tree could not agree,
That if this tree could ever see,
An alone tree it sure would be.
There’s an alone tree which topples me,
For this alone tree was tall, you see,
And then this tree would use its knee,
To break in three, the clouds who flee.
There’s an alone tree which lives near me,
The northern tree, its branches free,
The southern tree, no limb to see,
For this alone tree, was alone, you see?
There’s an alone tree which I can see,
And this alone tree (against my plea)
Was sent to sea, its roots now free,
And now this tree… A ship is he
