Lyrics[]

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree

A tree whose hungry mouth is pressed
Against the Earth's sweet flowing breast

A tree that looks at God all day
And lifts her leafy arms to pray

(instrumental break)

A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair

Upon whose bosom snow has lain
Who intimately lives with rain

Poems are made by fools like me
But only God can make a tree
