Eucalyptus
On my morning run today
I passed a eucalyptus tree
Reminded me of California
My life way before I knew ya

Eucalyptus smells sweet
And with its grey-green leaves it’s beautiful
And like you it’ll drop its branches suddenly

You crushed me
And those next to me
Who loved me, loved me
You crushed me
And those next to me
Who loved me, loved me

I met a Turkish man who sells rugs
He seemed very gentle like he knew love
I met a Brazilian who taught me to dance
He made me feel my second chance

You crushed me
And those next to me
Who loved me, loved me
You crushed me
And those next to me
Who loved me, loved me

On my morning run today
I passed a eucalyptus tree
Reminded me of California
My life way before I knew ya
