You Stayed

When I was born

You were a sapling on the lawn

And as I grew

You developed, too

Strong limbs that I liked to tease

Would billow in the breeze

Intoxicating bees

Oh and in your shade

I was first laid

You stood and you swayed

I moved on, you stayed

I moved on, you stayed

When I was born

You were a sapling on the lawn

And as I grew

You developed, too

And promises were made
