Written by: Eben Pariser, Molly Venter

lyrics

I was born underneath the weeping willow tree
that is where I swore my love to thee.
I was born underneath the weeping willow tree
the only thing I know for certain is someday I'll be free.

Innocent as first light of the morning
we swore our hearts together with a kiss
You were down on bended knee and underneath that willow tree
I was delivered from my loneliness.

Eager as the summer buds to flower
we planned and dreamed of seasons yet to come
and underneath that willow tree we raised ourselves a family
years flew by but days went on and on.

I was born underneath the weeping willow tree
that is where I swore my love to thee.
I was born underneath the weeping willow tree
the only thing I know for certain is someday I'll be free.

Sudden as a cold front in September
a sleep came on from which you did not wake
I laid your body finally beneath that weeping willow tree
in my dreams I reach out for your face.

I was born underneath the weeping willow tree
that is where I swore my love to thee.
I was born underneath the weeping willow tree
the only thing I know for certain is someday I'll be free.
