lyrics

For You (Giving Tree)
Written by Bonnie Whitmore Starlet&Dog SESAC

Standing by the window in the dusty shadows of my mind
Stands a tall silhouette. Boots kickin up where you spent some time

For you, I give you my world
For you, I give my shelter too

Swing, sweet baby and carved your initials into mine.
Now lye on your back, sparkle in shades of the salt and lime

For you, I promise to be true
For you, I give my heart to

Pick the fruit that’s waning
Let the breeze take the leaves
Braking branches, no second chances
Oh now we see
What’s left of this giving tree

Greedy fingers pickin pieces labeled as yours and mine
Could of seen this coming if love hadn’t gone and struck us blind

For you, you gave all you knew how to
For me, I got to make a giving tree anew
