No Tree To Sit Under

Once a boy lived in a town
 Played with his friends - a community
 And when he needed shelter
 He found it under a tree
 lt was massive and it was strong
 Had a kind of personality
 The boy blinked and it was gone
 What happened he couldn't see
 No Tree to sit under
 In times when you're alone
 No Tree to sit under
 Tell me what went wrong
 At the stump he stood and wondered
 Why his friend had disappeared
 Packed his bags and Ieft him lonely
 This could be foul play he feared
 They cut the tree and left a note
 That read "you are on your own"
 He realized that trusting friends
 Caused the damage that was done
 No Tree to sit under
 In times when you're alone
 No Tree to sit under
 Tell me what went wrong
 If the first is gone the next will follow
 The boy had to face reality
 And so have I 'cause it's no story
 You're right, the boy, the boy is me, yeah
 No Tree to sit under
 In times when you're alone
 No Tree to sit under
 Tell me what went wrong
 No Tree to sit under
 In times when you're alone
 No Tree to sit under
 Tell me what went wrong
 I am here - you see
 No one's left but me
 No one's left but me
