WINTER TREE   Key: D
Writer(s): Benn Cutarelli, Dan Robinson

VERSE
HE WALKS THROUGH THE WOODS OVER BRANCHES AND LIMBS
WATCHING THE CLOUDS AS THEY SLOWLY ROLL IN
HE TAKES A DEEP BREATH AS HE KNOWS HIS TIME IS NEAR
THINKING OF GOD AS THE FLAKES MELT ON HIS CHIN
REACHING THE END OF AN OLD FAMILAIR PATH
A CHILL RUNS THROUGH HIS SPINE, LIKE A 

CHORUS 
WINTER TREE
HE SWAYS WITH THE WIND 
FEELING THE COLD IN THE LINES ON HIS FACE, LIKE A
WINTER TREE
HE WAITS FOR SPRING
KNOWING IT BRINGS A NEW REBIRTH 
AND AGAIN TODAY HE WAITS PATIENTLY, LIKE A
WINTER TREE
 
VERSE
HE CROSSES THE CREEK AND LOOKS ON THE LAND 
WATCHING THE DEER AS THEY DRINK AND PLAY
HIS NAME IS ON A ROCK HE CARVED THERE AS A CHILD
BUT TODAY HE SITS ON IT ONLY TO PRAY
HE'S SEEN MANY YEARS COME AND GO
LIKE COLORS IN A LEAF AND RAINBOWS, LIKE A

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
HE FEELS LONGER NIGHTS AND SEES A SHORTER DAYS
BUT WEATHERS THROUGH THE SEASON ANYWAY, LIKE A

REPEAT CHORUS

TAG
AGAIN TODAY HE WAITS PATIENTLY, LIKE A 
WINTER TREE
