Willow Tree Lyrics


It will be great to see you again
Now that the cold wounds have mended
I promise I’ll be waiting by the door
Unlike so many nights before
That night you found me in the living room
Alone with the bottle I’d just consumed
I cried for hours after you had left
Must be hard to forgive, even harder to forget
So do you recall how to get there
You might not recognize that you see
Take the second right at the second light
Pass cherry street go left
It’s the second house with the willow tree
I’ll be there waiting
Now that I’ve watched all the seasons change
I’ve had time to see where my life had strayed
And through every pain and disbelief
Oh, you stood close by through my lies, through my deceit

So do you recall how to get here
You might not recognize what you see
Take the second right at the second light
Pass cherry street go left
It’s the second house with the willow tree
I’ll be there waiting
Through my selfishness
Couldn’t see where you were coming from
It took your leaving to see to see what I’d become
You saw past all the things I’d done
Take the second right at the second light
Pass cherry street go left
It’s the second house with the willow tree
I’ll be there waiting
I’ll be there waiting
I’ll be there waiting
You never forgot how to get there
You never forgot how to get there
You never forgot how to get there

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Veldt fell just short of being an anathema in the Chapel Hill indie rock scene of the early '90s. Sounding and looking nothing like the striped shirt contingent of Superchunk, Polvo, or Archers of Loaf, the band was more at home with the likes of England's dream pop bands. They were predominantly black, an unfortunate mark against them. What could be more natural than black men playing rock & roll? Keep the atmosphere of the Cocteau Twins and A.R.
