Cactus Tree - Joni Mitchell[00:00:00]

There's a man who's been out sailing[00:00:11]

In a decade full of dreams[00:00:13]

And he takes her to a schooner[00:00:16]

And he treats her like a queen[00:00:18]

Bearing beads from California[00:00:21]

With their amber stones and green[00:00:23]

He has called her from the harbor[00:00:31]

He has kissed her with his freedom[00:00:34]

He has heard her off to starboard[00:00:38]

In the breaking and the breathing of the water weeds[00:00:42]

While she was busy being free[00:00:50]

There's a man who's climbed a mountain[00:00:58]

And he's calling out her name[00:01:00]

And he hopes her heart can hear[00:01:03]

3000 miles he calls again[00:01:05]

He can think her there beside him[00:01:08]

He can miss her just the same[00:01:11]

He has missed her in the forest[00:01:18]

While he showed her all the flowers[00:01:21]

And the branches sang the chorus[00:01:25]

As he climbed the scaly towers of a forest tree[00:01:29]

While she was somewhere being free[00:01:37]

There's a man who sent a letter[00:01:45]

And he's waiting for her reply[00:01:48]

He has asked her of her travels[00:01:50]

Since the day they said goodbye[00:01:53]

He writes wish you were beside me[00:01:55]

We could make it if we try[00:01:58]

He has seen her at the office[00:02:05]

With her name on all his papers[00:02:09]

Through the sharing of the profits[00:02:13]

He will find it hard to shake her from these memories[00:02:17]

And she's so busy being free[00:02:25]

There's a lady in the city[00:02:32]

And she thinks she loves them all[00:02:35]

There's the one who's thinking of her[00:02:37]

There's the one who sometimes calls[00:02:40]

There's the one who writes her letters[00:02:42]

With his facts and figures scrawl[00:02:45]

She has brought them to her senses[00:02:52]

They have laughed inside her laughter[00:02:56]

Now she rallies her defenses[00:02:59]

For she fears that one will ask her for eternity[00:03:03]

And she's so busy being free[00:03:12]

There's a man who sends her medals[00:03:19]

He is bleeding from the war[00:03:22]

There's a jouster and a jester and a man who owns a store[00:03:24]

There's a drummer and a dreamer[00:03:29]

And you know there may be more[00:03:32]

She will love them when she sees them[00:03:38]

They will lose her if they follow[00:03:42]

And she only means to please them[00:03:46]

And her heart is full and hollow like a cactus tree[00:03:50]

While she's so busy being free[00:03:58]

Like a cactus tree[00:04:06]

Being free[00:04:16]
