Round about the beacon we go

Taking our time

Our tale goes on and on

Take a breath, take my hand
We’re on our sacred land

Like it’s just for me

I have never wandered
Slightly off the path

Could it be I wish to run away
And never turn my back

And what may I find
Could it be that I am not alone

In this willow tree I call home

Round about the willow

Friends of the forest are friends of my own

Sit by the stream tossing pebbles and

By the sweet willow

It’s part of a story been told round the fire

Of the sweet willow
