all the leaves on the giving tree have fallen
no shade to crawl in undernearth
I've gotta scars from pocket knife where you carved
your heart in to me
if all you wanted was love
why wound you use me up
cut me down build a boat and sail away
when all I wanted to be
was your giving tree
settle down built a home and make you happy
I lie in the dead of night I wonder
who's covers, you're between
it's sad laying in his bed night you feel hollow
so you crawl home back to me
if all you wanted was love
why wound you use me up
cut me down build a boat and sail away
when all i wanted to be
was your giving tree
settle down built a home and make you happy
well I see the trail that stars
a line of broken hearts behind you
that lead you back to me
the once sad and lonely fool with nothing left but roots to show
if all you wanted was love
why wound you use me up
cut me down build a boat and sail away
when all i wanted to be
was your giving tree
settle down built a home and make you happy
settle down built a home and make you happy
