For years now, everyday
From a toddler to a man
To the same spot he comes
To the same spot
The seedling became a tree
Both of them remember the day
When the flooding river took her away
Man and tree leaning together
Finding strength in shared sorrow
Hoping despite all she'll return
If not today, tomorrow surely
They'll be there waiting
To the same spot always.
