Willow, willow, weep with me
I'm bending in the slightest breeze
The bottom fell away from me and I'm drift  

My true love, in the calm of midnight
She slipped into the endless twilight
I didn't even hear the front door latch

    Tears will help you grow
    Let them fall like summer rain
    To feed the roots and dull the pain and	
    They will flow and we will grow and we will show them all

Willow, willow, I'm beneath
The splendor of your sprawling wreath
I'll take the comfort anywhere I can

I went to find my favorite sweater
But underneath, I found her letter
I didn't have the heart to break the seal

    [Chorus]

Willow, willow, feel the breeze
That's tugging on your tired leaves
And stealing all your fluffy seeds to scatter them

You let them go so nonchalantly
As if it were a fait accompli
Letting go is all that we can do

    [Chorus]
