I am rooted
Here I sit
Here I stay

In the breeze I watched you fall
I've seen your sprout grow strong and tall
with your roots still young and thin
you may leave my planted kin

while my leaves would give you shade
in the sun you'll need to play
So, off you go. Grow thick and strong
And follow the winds sweet sad song.

I shall still grow.
I ebb and flow.
I am still rooted I can not go.

In your winter I'll send my leaves
Wait for them upon that breeze
All my love our memories

You may be far
And I still here
But
In the breeze I'll hold you near
