In Winter I stumbled through the snow Up to the place where we used to go In warmer days to find the shade Offered by these boughs within this glade Each passing day they take these trees To put more men upon the seas In Spring I trod the vibrant green Up to that spot where once we'd seen Those orchids blossom bright and rare And you placed flowers in my hair Each passing day they take these trees To put more men upon the seas In Summer I came to feel the breeze That was fresh and sweet through sun-drenched leaves I sat my back against this bark And dream't of you on seas so dark Each passing day they take these trees To put more men upon the seas Our memories ripped from this place But I swear I'll not forget your face In Autumn I wade the shrouded ground While boughs above sway with the sound That conjures up the ocean cold That bears you brave and bold Each passing day they take these trees To put more men upon the seas Our memories ripped from this place But I swear I'll not forget your face In Winter I stumbled through the snow Up to the place where we used to go
