He was the king of trees Keeper of the leaves A deep green God 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 from the rain Oh lord how it's empty now With nothing save the breeze 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 evergreens Are coming to take me back The forest and the evergreens Are coming to take me back Please take me back
He was the king of trees Keeper of the glades The way he enchanted my life Makes me so amazed We used to meet by him Many years ago I love you Now they've come to lay the road Don't lay the road
