Needle Tree
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, only love can set you free
Hanging on the sunset tree
Well, you gave a little, gave a lot
Put your hands into the fire
Pursed your lips and gave a kiss
Now you know it's the kiss of death
Cut me down
Cut me down
Take me to your trees
Take me to the rest
Only love will set me free
Now only love can set me free
Why am I hanging on this needle tree?
I gave a little, gave a lot
Put my hands into the fire
Pursed my lips and gave a kiss
How would I know it was the kiss of death?
Cut me down
Cut me down
Cut me down
(Down, down, down, down)
Purse your lips and give a kiss
Find a lover, lose the pin
Running around inside your head
Don't you know they all are dead?
Capillary to the fount
Take me to your trees
Take me to the rest
Cut me down
(Cut me down)
Only love
Only love will set you free
