weeping willow

Lyrics

i give you twelve roses, you show me the stem, you just pretend, i give you twelve matches, you show me some bark, it's not from your heart, if she was a psychic there's no way i'd risk it with my future, if she was a general i'd charge her with treason, 'cause a weeping willow is falling with grace, falling with grace, i show you the river, you show me the stream, you just act the scene, but if i gave you nothing you'd show me the door so i give you some more, if she was a broker there's no way i'd trust her with my future, if she was a general i'd charge her with treason, come brothers to babylon, we'll all go marching on and love for all time, weak talking man you'll find no more, no more, so carry your future strong, if you don't play along love for all time, weak talking man you'll find no more, no more, oh yeah, i give you twelve roses, you show me the stem, you just pretend, i give you twelve matches, you show me some bark, it's not from your heart, if she was a psychic there's no way i'd risk it with my future, if she was a general i'd charge her with treason, but a weeping willow is rising with grace, rising with grace, rising with grace, oh look at me now, rising with grace, say look at me now, rising with grace, rising with grace
