Songtexte House of Jansch - Donovan

Girl ain't nothing but a willow tree
Swaying in a summer breeze
You'll never change what has to be
Girl ain't nothing but a willow tree

Sometimes I don't know what I said till I did
I want to be the father of your kid
Dragonfly he sleeps till dawn
I knew I'd be here when love has gone

Crystal ball is what I wish for you
Get it straight, I love the both of you
Someone's goin' through a cold turkey
Girl ain't nothing but a willow tree

I give your baby a contact high
I love another, is what I sigh
Looks like rain, I do declare
Your baby wants to take my chocolate eclair

I couldn't cry, I could not laugh
Incident about a silken scarf
I know what a jealous trip can be
Girl ain't nothing but a willow tree

Girl ain't nothing but a willow tree
Swaying in a summer breeze
You'll never change what has to be
Girl ain't nothing but a willow tree

Weep for me, willow tree
Weep for me, willow tree
