Lyrics

THE TREES J2004 [Key of D]
(Words and Music by Lacy Jo Davis)

(Chorus)
The trees are tall
They?re old and strong
They?ve been standing here for a long, long time
And they watch over you
And they watch over me
And we?re here together underneath the trees

I?m walkin? down the road
I?m fifteen
And from where I?m at, I can see the trees

They?re where you are
And I?m on my way
And when I get there, we?re gonna play in the shade

(Chorus)

I?m coming home
I?m on my way
And I can?t believe what your momma called to say

The road was dark
There was wind and rain
And now I can?t believe that I won?t see you again

(Chorus)

Now the years have gone
They?ve flown away
And now I?m here beside you layin? in the shade

You were young and strong
And I was old and weak
But now we?re here together underneath the trees
