Tree at My Window Songtext
von Williamson

Tree at my window, window tree
My sash is lowered when night comes on
But let there never be curtain drawn
Between you and me


Vague dream head lifted out of the ground
And thing next most diffuse to cloud
Not all your light tongues talking aloud
Could be profound

But tree I have seen you taken and tossed
And if you have seen me when I have slept
You have seen me when I was taken and swept
And all but lost

That day she put our heads together
Fate had her imagination about her
Your head so much concerned with outer
Mine with inner weather
