This is my favourite Cream song, too.
Although Baker isn't much exposed here, Clapton is still rockin', and Bruce is at his best.
Incredible lyrics; lonely man and a tree are the same, forgoten and polluted by the society.
Very deppresive song. It' doesn't have to be litteraly about ecology and environment, imo it is more about mass of people who live in the city and fell just lonely, becouse all they can care for is their own lives and needs; they just don't have time to look at the growing tree.
