Under the willow tree we sit,

Beneath its branches, cool and lit,

By the sun's warm, golden rays,

I close my eyes and start to sway.

Your arms around me, pulling me close,

A feeling better than any dose.

The gentle breeze, it whispers low,

And rustles through the leaves that grow,

Above our heads, a canopy,

Of green and gold, so peacefully.

The birds, they sing a lullaby,

And as I listen, I can't deny,

That all at once, I feel so calm,

And soon I'm drifting off to slumber's arms.

The sun, it shines so bright and warm,

But in this moment, I feel no harm,

For in the shade of this old tree,

I'm safe and sound, so peacefully.

I know that you will keep me safe,

With you is who I keep my faith.

And as I dream, I hear the sound,

Of rustling leaves, all around,

And in my heart, I know it's true,

That there's no place I'd rather be than here with you.
