Weeping tree, shoulders to the sky 
Never understood why 
Weeping tree, should've let you go 
How was I to know? 

And if you find a clue 
I hope you find it soon 
Some people hold their breath forever 
And if you find a house 
Where you can live without the one you love 
Weeping tree, fruitless, stands alone 
where lovers long dead used to go 
Weeping tree, should've let you go 
But how was I to know? 

And if you find a clue 
I hope you find it soon 
Some people hold their breath forever 
And if you find a house 
Where you can live without the one you love
