Matt Sax - Willow lyrics

[Willow] The poor girl sat alone under her Sycamore tree The poor girl hand on her heart and her head On her knee And the river washed by and her thoughts Would lie In the clouds over the sea Alone, awake, her mind would race into her Dreams And tear drops fall Down to the ground where the stones do lie And the fish fly by they can hear her sigh Breathe child breathe Unsure of what the balance held The girl grew up into herself And met the man she always dreamed to meet And he would kiss her endlessly Breathlessly she'd fall asleep In his arms beneath his tender wings Breathe child breathe When the man had got his way, he disappeared Without a trace And the girl is left alone under her Sycamore tree And tear drops fall [Willow & Emilia] Breathe child breathe And the wind cried Willow, Willow, Willlow Get your head up off the pillow, pillow, pillow And the wind cried Willow, Willow, Willlow Get your head up off the pillow, pillow, pillow I dreamed a dream and so it seems that little Girls have fantasies [Willow] I dreamed a dream and so it seems that little Girls have fantasies [Emilia] Little girls have fantasies -- Look around look around look around We are all the play things of men in this town Look around, what you'll find, what you'll see Is that men could care less bout your fantasy Believe me -- deceiving, conniving, contriving That light can be blinding With flowers in their hands But pockets full of dust Ain't no trust in a man With flowers in their hands But pockets full of dust Ain't no trust in a man [Emilia] (Willow) Why am I stuck in this lie I should've known better than to Trust his eyes (My life spent -- in hiding) I should've known better should've (Only him to confide in) Read the signs (See I had him -- no denying) Cause all my life -- I've been left (That this love's worth dying) Behind I'm as foolish as I ever was Thought this time was different -- (I came here because) Thought it would be better cause (I believed in his love) I thought the world had changed It's the same as it ever was Looking for a better love -- (And I believed in the cause) But you can't bet on love (But I've been acting so young) This girl's life is changed (If I can change) And I am to blame (Show me the way) How can I explain (A way to erase --) These mistakes I've made (These mistakes I've made) I wanted to love and be loved (I wanted to love and be loved) I wanted to love and be loved (I wanted to love and be loved) I wanted to love and be loved (I wanted to love and be loved) But instead I've come undone (But instead I've come undone) I can be there for her -- (This is my time) Like he isn't there for me (To make it right) But how do I tell her (It's all in me) That she has been deceived? (It's all in me) By me -- by me -- by me (It's all in me) [Willow & Emilia] And the wind cried Willow, Willow, Willlow Get your head up off the pillow, pillow, pillow And the wind cried Willow, Willow, Willlow Get your head up off the pillow, pillow, pillow I dreamed a dream and so it seems that little girls have fantasies [Emilia] I dreamed a dream and so it seems that little girls have fantasies
