there once was a tree
much smaller then me
its now older then me
that little tree
there it goes reaching above me
up to the sky
there once was a tree
much taller then me
reaching up very high
above me reaching the sky
there once was a tree
poor old tree
poor old tree
what have they done to you
i'm gonna have a look
oop's i'm writeing on you
your now my book.
