Willow

[Willow]
The poor girl sat alone under her Sycamore tree
The poor girl hand on her heart and her head
On her knee
And the river washed by and her thoughts
Would lie
In the clouds over the sea
Alone, awake, her mind would race into her
Dreams
And tear drops fall
Down to the ground where the stones do lie
And the fish fly by they can hear her sigh
Breathe child breathe

Unsure of what the balance held
The girl grew up into herself
And met the man she always dreamed to meet
And he would kiss her endlessly
Breathlessly she'd fall asleep
In his arms beneath his tender wings
Breathe child breathe
When the man had got his way, he disappeared
Without a trace
And the girl is left alone under her Sycamore tree
And tear drops fall

[Willow & Emilia]
Breathe child breathe
And the wind cried Willow, Willow, Willlow
Get your head up off the pillow, pillow, pillow
And the wind cried Willow, Willow, Willlow
Get your head up off the pillow, pillow, pillow
I dreamed a dream and so it seems that little
Girls have fantasies

Little girls have fantasies --
Look around look around look around
We are all the play things of men in this town
Look around, what you'll find, what you'll see
Is that men could care less bout your fantasy
Believe me -- deceiving, conniving, contriving
That light can be blinding
With flowers in their hands
But pockets full of dust
Ain't no trust in a man
With flowers in their hands
But pockets full of dust
Ain't no trust in a man

[Emilia] (Willow)
Why am I stuck in this lie
I should've known better than to
Trust his eyes (My life spent -- in hiding)
I should've known better should've (Only him to confide in)
Read the signs (See I had him -- no denying)
Cause all my life -- I've been left (That this love's worth dying)
Behind

I'm as foolish as I ever was
Thought this time was different -- (I came here because)
Thought it would be better cause (I believed in his love)
I thought the world had changed
It's the same as it ever was
Looking for a better love -- (And I believed in the cause)
But you can't bet on love (But I've been acting so young)

This girl's life is changed (If I can change)
And I am to blame (Show me the way)
How can I explain (A way to erase --)
These mistakes I've made (These mistakes I've made)
I wanted to love and be loved (I wanted to love and be loved)
I wanted to love and be loved (I wanted to love and be loved)
I wanted to love and be loved (I wanted to love and be loved)
But instead I've come undone (But instead I've come undone)

I can be there for her -- (This is my time)
Like he isn't there for me (To make it right)
But how do I tell her (It's all in me)
That she has been deceived? (It's all in me)
By me -- by me -- by me (It's all in me)
