The Money Tree

The day will come, he'll come running to me
The day the sun turns black and there's a money tree
The day will come, he'll be changing his tune
When there's a granite lake and a cotton moon
And you'll listen to all of his sorrowful pleas
And I'll forgive him and life will be cool as a breeze
When the rain falls off

The day will come, he'll come back to my arms
And the slate is clean when the snow is green
And we'll share a love idyllic and final and free
Yes, the time will come when he'll never stray
On the never dawn of the never day

When the green snow sits on the silver money tree
Oh, a pitch black sun and a money tree
Oh yeah
A granite lake and a cotton moon
And he will tremble and stammer and say he was wrong
And together is how we will always belong

The day will come, he'll come back to my arms
And forget the past when a snail runs fast
And we'll share a love idyllic and final and free
Yeah, the time will come when he'll never stray
On the never dawn of the never day
When we all pick coins off the silver money tree

You know he is gonna come back to me
