[Verse 1]
I am old woman beech by the river
To the warm sun I reach, caregiver
I lull the sleeper, secret keeper
[Verse 2]
When the boy he carved his name, the stars were shinin'
And the girl she did the same, the moon was smilin'
Their love grew deeper, secret keeper
[Chorus]
And here I stand, I gaze on the new
From this great north land
Like me they grew, grew
[Verse 3]
When the boy worked underground my roots could hear him
And the girl, her belly round, was always near him
Their love grew deeper, secret keeper
[Verse 4]
Now the years have passed along, my branches stronger
And the boy and girl have gone, here no longer
I lull the sleepers, secret keeper
[Chorus]
And here I stand, I gaze on the new
From this great north land
Like me they grew, grew
I am old woman beech by the river
To the warm sun I reach, caregiver
I lull the sleeper, secret keeper
[Verse 2]
When the boy he carved his name, the stars were shinin'
And the girl she did the same, the moon was smilin'
Their love grew deeper, secret keeper
[Chorus]
And here I stand, I gaze on the new
From this great north land
Like me they grew, grew
[Verse 3]
When the boy worked underground my roots could hear him
And the girl, her belly round, was always near him
Their love grew deeper, secret keeper
[Verse 4]
Now the years have passed along, my branches stronger
And the boy and girl have gone, here no longer
I lull the sleepers, secret keeper
[Chorus]
And here I stand, I gaze on the new
From this great north land
Like me they grew, grew
