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
