Bury Me In Willow Lyrics

Bury me in willow
I'll go whichever way the winds blow
It's hard to swim against the tide
The willow bends in a tornado
The oak will shatter as it dies
Save me, and give me the peace to surrender at last
When I'm gone, do this thing for me
For this is my final day, you know
I would not joke
So bury me in willow, not in oak
Give me no standard, no eulogy
No red, white and and blue, no sceptre or no cloak
Just bury me in willow, not in oak
A life of conflict was unending
Collision, damage, disarray
So blind, intolerant, unbending
Just let me die a different way
Free me, and give me the peace to surrender at last When I'm gone, do this thing for me For this is my final day, you know I would not joke So bury me in willow, not in oak Give me no standard, no eulogy No red, white and blue, no sceptre or no cloak

Just bury me in willow, not in oak
When I'm gone, do this thing for me
For this is my final day, you know
I would not joke
So bury me in willow, not in oak
Give me no standard, no eulogy
No red white and blue, no sceptre or no cloak
Just bury me in willow, not in oak
Free me, and give me the beautiful silence at last
When I'm gone, do this thing for me
For this is my final day, you know
I would not joke
So bury me in willow, not in oak
Give me no standard, no eulogy
No red, white and and blue, no sceptre or no cloak
Just bury me in willow, not in oak
When I'm gone, do this thing for me
For this is my final day, you know I would not joke So bury me in willow, not in oak Give me no standard, no eulogy
No red, white and blue, no sceptre or no cloak
Just bury me in willow, not in oak
