  • Well, once I was a lover
    With beautiful long brown hair
    (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

    When I walk down any street
    Men would stop and stare
    (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

    Boys would whistle
    And their eyes would shine
    (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

    My skirt would swish
    To show my long strong legs so fine
    (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
    So fine

    Was a time, I was a mother
    Darling children would come for me
    I loved them and I'd feed them
    And in their eyes such love I'd see
    They'd call my name in times of need

    Trees Lyrics
    And I'd be there
    (And they loved me)
    And they loved me
    (And we loved you)

    And I loved them
    (And they loved me)
    And they loved me
    (And we loved you)

    Once I was a man
    My cock as hard as wood
    I stood as strong as any tree
    Look back, the winds are catching me

    So, my woman, love me
    And you know I am strong
    I was raised and nude as trees
    I stood

    Trees Lyrics
    My baby loves me
    (My baby loves me)
    My baby loves me
    (My baby loves me)
    My baby loves me
    (My baby loves me)

    I was back to this time itself
    Deep and sharp within my empty cell
    A comedy of errors I've become
    And all my devils, I forgot
    And on my name or where I've come

    Someone take me back to the fields
    Where I need to be
    So once again I can stand tall and feel
    Once more, a tree Writer/s: PAUL WELLER, SIMON DINE
