Time tree

 Lime tree, lime tree

Lime tree, lime tree

When it falls

In your lemon heart

Lime tree


Time tree

Time is a tree

With roots down to the past

And branches out to the future

Time tree


Time drops its leaves

And it grows new shoots

Time and time and time again

Time tree


Oh the squeeze of time

is a bitter fruit

But then the time, yours and mine

Is a time tree pursuit


Time tree

Time tree

Time is yours and mine

Time tree


Time tree

Through the forest park

Time's leaves fall on the path

Time's tree turns dark


Time tree, time tree

The tree of time is yours and mine

Time tree


Time tree sheds off its bark

Some will put their ears to its trunk

But they never hark


Time's tree through our lives

Time's tree in the park

Time tree ever shining on

Time tree is never dark
