I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And you can find shade beneath my limbs<\/span><\/p>\n

I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And you can climb over me<\/span><\/p>\n

Just so you can sit a little taller<\/span><\/p>\n

I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And you can cut off my growth<\/span><\/p>\n

Just so you can make your own<\/span><\/p>\n

I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And you can carve in me<\/span><\/p>\n

A memory of you<\/span><\/p>\n

To last long after you have left me<\/span><\/p>\n

I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And your simple breath could be enough<\/span><\/p>\n

To feed me<\/span><\/p>\n

I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And for you<\/span><\/p>\n

My roots will try to hold your world together<\/span><\/p>\n

I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And for you<\/span><\/p>\n

I would shed my leaves<\/span><\/p>\n

Even if it were just because you liked the feeling of them beneath your feet<\/span><\/p>\n

I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And for you<\/span><\/p>\n

I would always fight to bloom again<\/span><\/p>\n

I could be a tree<\/span><\/p>\n

And for you<\/span><\/p>\n

Despite my hollows<\/span><\/p>\n

I will always bear it all<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
