Elephant's Memory - Old Man Willow by Elephant's Memory lyrics

Somewhere there's an Old Man Willow Weeping all alone People laugh at him Sit and stare everywhere He doesn't care He just sits there by his river Gazing at the sky What's the reason why Is he there anywhere People don't know why he sits there and cries They think he's got a secret but they don't realize He's just hot - he's got a fly on his shoulder He wants to swat it off but his limbs have grown older He's tired and sick and he can't walk away To find some shade like he has made for others of the ____ He stopped to look at the sun one day He didn't realize that he would be there to stay It doesn't matter what the people think He just want's to get out of the sun To find a place that he can sleep Somewhere there's an Old Man Willow Weeping tears of rain Wind blows in his eyes As they stare everywhere.... --- .
