Mark Hanson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They Say There′s A Tree In The Forest,
A Tree That Will Give You A Sign;
Come Along With Me To The Sweetheart Tree,
Come And Carve Your Name Next To Mine.
They Say If You Kiss The Right Sweetheart,
The One You've Been Waiting For,
Big Blossoms Of White Will Burst Into Sight
And Your Love Will Be True Evermore.
