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 vowed your 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
