Gypsy Tree Songtext

von Ryan O'Reilly

Her yellow dress was torn
Her shoes were tired and worn
She took shelter from my storm
Beneath the Gypsy Tree

She carried other people's cares
In the tears that soaked her hair
Climb the Gypsy Tree

Stay with me
Remain with me
Stay with me
Tonight

As the lights they flashed on by
A thick black smoke filled the sky
I could stop this if I try
If you showed me how

With a Bible on her knee
She smiled and said to me
This is a love song, can't you see?
And I know that now

Stay with me
Remain with me
Stay with me
Tonight

And I stand at Hammersmith Station
Waiting for the beating to begin
It's Summer in the sunshine
And Autumn in the wind

As the sunshine warmed her skin
She refused to let it in
Night-time burned her with it's sin
Beneath the Gypsy Tree

Like the cockerel when it crew
It's all over yes I knew
And I wept bitterly for you
Beneath a Gypsy Tree

And I stand at Hammersmith Station
Waiting for the beating to begin
It's Summer in the sunshine
And Autumn in the wind
