Tonight I found a picture, a picture of your smile A smile I haven't seen, seen in quite a while But I hope tonight I could put that smile back upon your face If you come and stay a while Come and stay a while And if you could be a tree What kind of tree would you be I would be an apple to feed our family You could be a willow, one that never weeps And in the comfort of your shade Eleanor can sleep Eleanor can sleep You were the steward the keeper, protector of my heart Until the breath lent to us chooses to depart
You would have been my joy, beloved of my hand So before our king in confidence we stand And if you could be a tree What kind of tree would you be I would be an apple to feed our family You could be a willow, one that never weeps And in the comfort of your shade Eleanor can sleep Eleanor can sleep And if you could be a tree What kind of tree would you be I would be an apple to feed our family You could be a willow, one that never weeps And in the comfort of your shade Eleanor can sleep Eleanor can sleep
