The Giving Tree - Plain White T's

All the leaves on the giving tree have fallen

No shade to crawl in underneath

I've got scars from a pocket knife

Where you carved your heart into me

If all you wanted was love

Why would you use me up

Cut me down build a boat and sail away

When all I wanted to be was your giving tree

Settle down build a home and make you happy

I lie in the dead of night and I wonder

Whose covers you're between

And it's sad laying in his bed

You feel hollow so you crawl home back to me

If all you wanted was love

Why would you use me up

Cut me down build a boat and sail away

When all I wanted to be was your giving tree

Settle down build a home and make you happy

Well I see a trail that starts

A line of broken hearts behind you

That lead you back to me

The once sad and lonely fool

With nothing left but roots to show oh

If all you wanted was love

Why would you use me up

Cut me down build a boat and sail away

When all I wanted to be was your giving tree

Settle down build a home and make you happy

Settle down build a home and make you happy
