I Am A Tree

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
 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
 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
