Willow Tree Lyrics

Let me be your weeping willow tree
Surround you with my lonely
And my day
Let me grow in the shade
In the sand
The banks by your river
Let me drink from your stream
The cool breeze fill my limbs
We will sing together
Water over the bevel
I stand by your side forever

I wish I was a weeping willow tree
I wish I was a weeping willow tree

I wish I was a weeping willow tree
Sweet river caress how softly
???
Maybe the sun in the summers heat
Let it cool you
We have been dancing so long
In the winters freeze
The summers ddrought
We survive
We belong
Let us sing together
Water over the bevel
I stand by your side forever
I wish I was
Your weeping
Willow tree
I wish I was a weeping willow tree
I wish I was a weeping willow tree

Let us sing together
Water over the bevel
I stand by your side forever
Let us sing together
Water over the bevel
I stand by your side forever
We can sing together
Water over the bevel
I stand by your side forever
Let me be
Your willow tree
Your willow tree

Let me be your weeping willow tree 
Surround you with my lonely 
And my day 
Let me grow in the shade 
In the sand 
The banks by your river 
Let me drink from your stream 
The cool breeze fill my limbs 
We will sing together 
Water over the bevel 
I stand by your side forever

I wish I was a weeping willow tree 
I wish I was a weeping willow tree

I wish I was a weeping willow tree 
Sweet river caress how softly 
??? 
Maybe the sun in the summers heat 
Let it cool you 
We have been dancing so long 
In the winters freeze 
The summers ddrought 
We survive 
We belong 
Let us sing together 
Water over the bevel 
I stand by your side forever 
I wish I was 
Your weeping 
Willow tree 
I wish I was a weeping willow tree 
I wish I was a weeping willow tree

Let us sing together 
Water over the bevel 
I stand by your side forever 
Let us sing together 
Water over the bevel 
I stand by your side forever 
We can sing together 
Water over the bevel 
I stand by your side forever 
Let me be 
Your willow tree 
Your willow tree

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is one of my fav. G.Love songs, it's really amazin', i don't why nobody has comment it. I don't know what this song means, my english isn't the best, I'm a spanish speaker, from the great SouthAmerica, Chile exactly.
