Willow
The Arcadian Wild Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In this world we made
Don't stray up on the canopy
Safe beneath the willow tree
Whether or not there'll be warmer weather
There just enough sun to see
You're the light over me
I'll love you night and day
Be the ground underneath my feet
I'll walk with no need to worry
Consume the stream rushing round my knees
I'll bathe with you till the morning
Being the wind I hear whispering
I'll carry you when you're weary
Below the willow will I be
(Below the willow will I be)
Come live with me
Beneath the tree
Walk with me into the rain
Distract the world away
I'll fall for you, I'll follow you
Unfaltering all the way
Whether or not I'll just wear the leaves soon
You and I left here long ago
Dry under the leaves of the willow
Locked away far from the rain
We wander through our domain
Be the ground underneath my feet
I'll walk with no need to worry
Consume the stream rushing round my knees
I bathe with you till the morning
Being the wind I hear whispering
I carry you when you're weary
Below the willow will I be
(Below the willow will I be)
Come live with me
Beneath the tree
Oh oh oh...
Oh oh oh...
Be the ground underneath my feet
I'll walk with no need to worry
Consume the stream rushing round my knees
I bathe with you till the morning
Being the wind I hear whispering
I carry you when you're weary
Be the ground underneath my feet
I'll walk with no need to worry
Consume the stream rushing round my knees
I bathe with you till the morning
Being the wind I hear whispering
I carry you when you're weary
Below the willow will I be
(Below the willow will I be)
Come live with me
Beneath the tree
