Willow, willow br soft swinging low head br sadness brings night tears br to your breast. br br Singing of a night wing br circles in the sky br down in the darkness br a life begins to die. br br Willow, willow br no answer to give br sunlight brings bright br eyes exploring where you live. br br Songs of happy voices br whisper to the breeze br but no one see the tragedy br that lies beneath the leaves. br br Willow, willow br watching the world go by br evening breathes a stillness br near the close of the day. br br Cries of distant shadows br and shriek of diving claws br hissing into silence br that will soon engulf them all.
