Story Behind the Song
I asked Lucy what words come in to her mind when I mentioned an Olive Tree, her reply resulted in 90 percent of this song
Lyrics
Youre knarled youre twisted
Old man sits at your roots
On your Greek Island in the Med
Black and Green are your fruits.
And youll still grow, when your dead
Olive tree, do you know what you mean to me?
You make me happy and at peace, Olive tree.
Silouetted in the sun,
Arid landscape, still, still air.
Patient for the rain to come,
Breathing life to all you bear.
Still you will grow, if theres none
Olive tree, do you know what you mean to me?
You make me happy and at peace, Olive tree.
And youll still grow, when were gone
Olive tree, do you know what you mean to me?
You make me happy and at peace, Olive tree.
