The Willow Tree

She looked a lot like I did, so it was easy
She wore painted lips and powdered eyelids
But unlike me did not react
Maybe she even smiled back

You must have known where this was going
Was it your first time
You kept playing possum, always knowing
That she was going to be the one
I was the girl she had become

Leaves are falling
Though it's only Spring
On the front lawn
From the willow tree
No answer
You just run away
And leave your shadow
Under the willow tree

Shе was close enough to understudy
And makе your payday
She fell into place like easy money
And let your inhibitions fly
Repair the tear I left inside

And she's the real thing, it's really happening...
