There is a tree, that tree is me
For it is wrapped around another tree
That tree is you, for we are two
When I grew, I grew wrapped around you
And I could stand alone, but I don't wanna stand alone
And I can sing without you, but I don't wanna
And I can't stop when I'm with you, and I don't wanna
It's what keeps me afloat, and I am missing every note
There is a tree,
It's standing tall
It doesn't want for anything at all,
It stands alone, that's how it's grown
And that's exactly how it wants to be
It's a tall and lovely tree but it's not you and it's not me
And I can sing without you, but I don't wanna
And I can't stop when I'm with you, and I don't wanna
It's what keeps me afloat and I am missing every note
