Indigo Girls - Cedar Tree lyrics
Your rating:
According to Chris, Amy said that she wrote this song after she took a walk in Georgia with a guy who knew the history of the area. They came across an old burnt out homestead with a well and a grove of trees. Her friend said that the man who lived there planted a cedar when his wife died...there were five trees. Cedar Tree. You dug a well, you dug it deep For every wife you buried You planted a cedar tree The best, the best you ever had. I stand where you stood I stand for bad or good And I am green and you are wood The best, the best he ever had. I'll dig a well, I'll dig it deep And for my only love I plant the cedar tree The best, the best I'll ever have
