All the leaves on the Giving Tree have fallen
No shade to cr awl in undern eath
I've got scars from a pocket knife
Where you carved your heart into me
[Refrain :]
If all you want ed was love
Why would you use me up
Cut me down, build a boat, and sail away
When all I wanted to be was your giving tree
Settle down, build a home, and make you happy ?
I lie in the dead of night and I wonder
Whose covers you're bet ween
And it's sad laying in his bed
You feel hollow, so you crawl home back to me
[Refrain]
Well, I see a trail that starts
A line of broken hearts behind you
That lead you back to me
The once sad and lonely fool
With nothing left but roots to show, oh o h
[Refrain]
