A Tree - Murray Head[00:00:00]

Lyricist：Murray Head[00:00:05]

Composer：Murray Head[00:00:10]

Once upon a time[00:00:15]

He was a fearless[00:00:17]

Tree[00:00:19]

So young and yet so wise[00:00:23]

They had to cut him down to size[00:00:27]

A passing girl took out a knife[00:00:37]

And carved her name[00:00:40]

She couldn't stop she wanted more[00:00:46]

As chip by chip dropped to the floor[00:00:49]

She saw[00:00:55]

A sculpture[00:00:58]

An outlet[00:01:02]

For culture[00:01:05]

And by degrees[00:01:09]

As time went by[00:01:12]

He felt his sap[00:01:16]

Run dry[00:01:19]

When finished carving[00:01:52]

She would polish him at home[00:01:53]

He was dusted down at weekends[00:02:00]

But mostly spent his time alone[00:02:04]

One day a burglar[00:02:14]

Stole her statue from the shelf[00:02:16]

She missed it in the morning[00:02:23]

Took the blame upon herself[00:02:27]

She'd got what[00:02:32]

She wanted[00:02:36]

He'd been taken[00:02:39]

For granted[00:02:43]

From a tree to[00:02:46]

A sculpture[00:02:50]

She'd grown over[00:02:53]

Familiar[00:02:57]

You don't realise[00:03:01]

Just what you've got[00:03:04]

Till it's gone and lost[00:03:07]

Forever[00:03:11]
