FRIENDLY ROCK, FRIENDLY TREE  

words & music L. Solomon  © L. Solomon 2006

 

A friendly rock or a friendly tree

I needed you, you didn’t need me

I tried so hard, it was not to be

I couldn’t find that rock or tree

 

When I was young, I stood so tall

Then came the rain and that was all

I shook my head, just wasn’t fair

I looked for you, you weren’t there

 

A friendly rock or a friendly tree

I needed you, you didn’t need me

I tried so hard, it was not to be

I couldn’t find that rock or tree

 

That summer breeze, around my face

Led down the road, to winter’s waste

What’s done is done, no more to say

The urge is gone, it passed away

 

A friendly rock or a friendly tree

I needed you, you didn’t need me

I tried so hard, it was not to be

I couldn’t find that rock or tree

 

I’m getting old, the shadow’s cast

Just want to find, some peace at last

Now as I look towards heaven’s door

Hope I won’t need you any more

 

A friendly rock or a friendly tree

I needed you, you didn’t need me

I tried so hard, it was not to be

I couldn’t find that rock or tree
