Nana mouskouri the little cypress tree lyrics

The cypress tree stands all alone



And casts a shadow of its own



And in the shallow of the tree



I hear the lies you told to me











And like the cypress tree I stand alone



I love for keeps,you love for fun



I could not melt your heart of stone



You' re gone, now I' m the lonely one



Like the cypress tree in the setting sun











We stood beneath the cypress tree



T'was there you vowedyour love for me



But vows to you were empty words



Well I believed each lie I heard











And like the cypress tree, I stand alone



I love for keeps,you love for fun



I could not melt your heart of stone



You're gone, now I'm the lonely one



Like the cypress tree in the setting sun











Like the cypress tree in the setting sun



Like the cypress tree in the setting sun
