Halfway between your house and mine
Stood a weeping willow tree
If God ever made a tree to climb
Well, He build that one
Just for you and me
It was so easy climbing up
The trick was to not look down

In the time it takes to turn around
You find that promises are hard to keep
Like the ones we made when we were young
About how we'd stay together and never leave

But little ones run out of time
There are much bigger trees to climb
And friends like you are hard to find

Wherever in the world you are tonight
I pray that you are warm and safe and dry
And if you ever think of me
I hope these things things cross your mind
Best friends, God's love, and great times

Last night I was out for a drive
And I remembered that willow tree
And how we'd laugh until we'd cry
And how that innocence has abandoned me
The greatest joys from the simplest things
The truth was the only thing we believed
Now I'm learning from the memory

Wherever in the world you are tonight
I pray that you are warm and safe and dry
Wherever in the world you are tonight
I wanted you to know
That I'm alright

And if you ever think of me
I hope these things cross your mind
Best friends, God's love, and great times
