I Am A Tree Lyrics - Guided By Voices

I am a tree, I show my age when I don't cry 

I have the leaf that will fall off when wind blows by 

Don't strip off my bark, I have been stripped of it before 

'Cause yesterday's gone and tomorrow has so much more in store

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

You are a bird, you're taking off in every way 

Save the last word till there is nothing more to say 

Don't interrupt, you know the squirrels are my friends 

Get off my limb, for I will break before I bend 

I'm planning to see 

I'm planning to feel you all over me 

So climb up my trunk and build on your nest 

Come get the sap out of me 

I am a tree 

Fruitless and free 

No symmetry 

Touch me and see 

I am a tree, counting my rings will do no good 

I won't live long, but I would be with you if I could 

When you take flight, remember me to one who lives there 

Since you have flown, there's something special in the air 

Photos 

I'm planning to see 

I'm planning to feel you all over me 

So climb up my trunk and build on your nest 

Come get the sap out of me 

I am a tree 

Fruitless and free 

No symmetry 

Touch me and see 

I am a tree, yeah 

Fruitless and free, yeah 

No symmetry, yeah
